Australia Travel presents the Day Reef Cruise - MV Supercat
If you are looking for a day trip to the Great Barrier Reef on a high speed
catamaran that is EXCEPTIONAL VALUE, look no further. Offering one of the
fastest day trips, visiting two outer reef locations for an unforgettable day
of fun, discovery and adventure. The MV Supercat provides a superior and
comfortable ride in almost all weather conditions.
Catering to the budget traveler, by cruising to the outer reef on the MV
Supercat, you will still have the opportunity to snorkel, scuba dive or take a
glass bottom boat tour, and cruise in air-conditioned comfort.
The cruise visits two spectacular outer reef dive and snorkel sites:
Norman Reef offers a great variety of fish life, pelagic, turtles, coral
gardens, swim through, caves, giant clams. Amphitheater like sandy floors are
surrounded by coral hillocks, reef edge and bommies. The swim through are
excellent but some of the caves are not safe and a guide is necessary to lead
you and show you which ones are safe. There are walls of all sizes and shapes
with overhangs common.
Saxon Reef has hard corals, moray eels, lion fish, Maori wrasse, beautiful
coral gardens. Excellent shallow snorkeling over the bommie tops. Swim
throughs and gullies are scattered throughout the reef. The white sandy floor
reflects the light and on a sunny day turns the whole area into a classic
magical reef scene.
Take this opportunity to snorkel, sunbathe, try scuba diving, or stay dry
by taking the 30 minute glass bottom boat tour. You will also be provided with
an Aussie tropical lunch. This will genuinely be a great day out!
Snorkeling:
One of the best ways to view the Great Barrier Reef. Snorkeling equipment
(including prescription masks) included and easy access to the water is
available from lowered platforms. You are invited to join a free guided tour,
to get the most out of your snorkeling experience.
Glass Bottom Boat Tour:
View the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef without getting wet! Gaze at
masses of fish during the fish feed. The duration is approximately 30 minutes.
