Quicksilver Outer Great Barrier Reef Full-Day Cruise

Sail to the remote Agincourt Reef — the very outer edge of the Great Barrier Reef — on Quicksilver's premium high-speed catamaran. Snorkel, dive, or ride a semi-submersible through a living coral cathedral. The bucket-list reef experience in Tropical North Queensland.

What to expect

Board Quicksilver's sleek catamaran at Port Douglas Marina at 9:15am for a 90-minute cruise out to the pontoon at Agincourt Reef. Once there, spend four hours in the water snorkelling over bommies teeming with coral trout, reef sharks, and sea turtles, or descend with a scuba instructor. A semi-submersible offers a dry-eye view of the reef below. A buffet lunch is served on the pontoon before the return cruise.
