Things to do in Cairns

worth the visit , you can do so many things in a single day . good for people who don’t have much time

SCUBA diving can be a bit challenging for the first time. First, ensure the following safety measures: 1. Disclose any medications you are taking, aside from birth control or motion sickness medication. (Some chronic medications may require a doctor's authorization for diving.) 2. Allow 18 hours between a dive and flying. Service details: 1. Transportation to the pier is not included. You are responsible for getting to the pier for check-in. 2. We recommend taking motion sickness medication. If you don't have any, it is available for purchase on board. 3. A simple breakfast and lunch are provided on board. 4. Wetsuits are available for rent. 5. We provide personal fins, diving masks, and storage compartments. There are also shared life jackets available for snorkeling. After boarding and before departure, you will need to fill out a safety notice and health questionnaire. Then, our staff will explain how to use the diving equipment. Once the boat is anchored, you can snorkel and free dive from the back of the boat. SCUBA diving is done in groups. This tour includes stops at two dive sites. Before your SCUBA dive, you will practice on the side of the boat. Then, the instructor will guide you, hand-in-hand, to depths of approximately 10 meters or more. However, first-time divers are not allowed to bring photography equipment. A dive photographer will take photos for everyone. The staff are very helpful, and the Great Barrier Reef is well worth the experience.

We did the full-day tour with snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef and a visit to Fitzroy Island — an amazing experience! Everything was really well organised, the staff were great, and the reef itself was a true bucket list moment. Lunch was delicious and clearly labelled, which was perfect for my gluten-free partner. Fitzroy Island was beautiful. Plenty of freedom to explore the reefs as long as you follow the rules. Highly recommend!

It was nice that there were fewer people compared to Green Island! But I'm not sure if there were that many fish. I recommend taking a glass-bottom boat tour rather than just snorkeling! You can go out to deeper areas.

Thisntour was amazing! The staff onboard the boat provided excellent service, educational presentations and wonderful buffet food. The snorkeling was absolutely beautiful and suitable for all levels of experience. If we travel back to Cairns, we’d definitely book this same tour again.

the service was very good, clear instructions on how to use the snorkling equipment. had a really great time :)

Service: Eddie's service is truly remarkable 😎 (and he's also very funny) Itinerary: But I wish there was more time for diving 🤿 (because I participated in many activities, so I could only dive once... I really regret it) Value for money: Definitely participate in all the activities on the Great Barrier Reef

The tour company is very thoughtful and emails again a few days before departure to confirm the time, location, and pickup. Also, they hand out instructions and admission tickets with each person's name when taking attendance on site. This ensures everyone knows where to meet for departure. Very clear.

It was an interesting experience to go up to the top of the mountain on the Kuranda Scenic Railway. There are many activities available at the top of the mountain. I wasn't very explorative, so I ended up just going to the shops and a butterfly sanctuary. However, I believe there is much more to do there.
