Port Douglas Three-Site Outer Reef Cruise – Poseidon
Visit three outer reef sites from Port Douglas with marine interpretation and a guided snorkel tour. Equipment, refreshments and buffet lunch are included; scuba costs extra.
Make reef variety the focus of your day with Poseidon’s three-site trip from Port Douglas. The itinerary visits outer reef locations selected for the day’s conditions, with briefings and marine interpretation to help you understand the different habitats.
For time in the water
Snorkel equipment, instruction and a guided snorkel tour are included, along with flotation devices. The day provides around four hours at the reef, with a buffet lunch and morning and afternoon tea between activities.
This is a boat-based reef day for confident swimmers. There is no glass-bottom boat or semi-submersible, so the main way to experience the reef is by entering the water.
Certified and introductory dives are available through paid diving options. Choose the activity package you need and check eligibility before booking; certified divers must bring evidence of their qualification.
