8 hours 30 mins

Join a 10 minute scenic helicopter flight from Moore Reef helipad, explore the Outer Great Barrier Reef aboard Sunlover Cruises, enjoy pontoon activities, and visit Fitzroy Island with lunch at Zephyrs Restaurant.

Combine reef cruising, island exploration with a 10 minute scenic helicopter flight over the Great Barrier Reef. Check-in at the Sunlover Cruises counter inside the Reef Fleet Terminal from 7:00 AM to 7:30 AM, depart Cairns Marina at 8:00 AM aboard an air-conditioned catamaran bound for the Outer Great Barrier Reef.

Arrive at the Sunlover Moore Reef Pontoon by 9:30 AM for 2.5 hours of reef time. At the pontoon, soar above the reef from the helipad and admire natural coral formations and marine life from the air. Enjoy snorkelling, a thrilling 30 metre spiral waterslide, or stay dry while exploring on semi-submersible and glass-bottom boat tours. The underwater observatory offers excellent views of the marine world below.

Next, cruise to Fitzroy Island and arrive by 12:45 PM for two hours of on-island leisure. Relish a premium buffet lunch at Zephyrs Restaurant on Welcome Bay, and take the opportunity to explore Fitzroy Island's lush rainforest, woodland, mangroves, and coral-fringed beaches with included snorkel gear.

The day concludes with a 3:30 PM departure from Fitzroy Island, returning to Cairns Marina at 4:30 PM. This combined helicopter flight, reef experience, and island visit provides a comprehensive Outer Reef and Fitzroy Island adventure.
