A glass bottom boat coral viewing tour is also on offer. Premium reef sites showcase abundant marine life, including encounters with turtles and an amazing display of giant clam gardens, beautiful corals and a wide variety of fish.

A tropical buffet lunch, morning and afternoon teas & coffees, supplied by local plantations, will compliment a day of adventure and relaxation. Expert guiding and 1st class services are all included from helpful, friendly crew.

Immersed in the northern frontier of Great Barrier Reef, this is the perfect sailing and snorkelling adventure for a conservation minded visitor. Discerning guests can fully enjoy an inspiring full day adventure using wind power to the absolutely stunning cays on the Great Barrier Reef in the most environmentally way!

Important note:
Mackay and Undine Coral Cays are 28/25 nautical miles from Port Douglas. We have exclusive access to these sites from Port Douglas. Journey time will be approximately 2 hours. During this time, we conduct our safety and snorkel briefings and distribute equipment. Reef Interpretation talk. Crew and guest interaction on day’s sightings.
Walking on the Coral Cays is dependant on the daily tides. The itinerary may vary to allow us to take guests to the cays at some point throughout the day. Some day’s we simply can’t walk on the cays as the tide is too low to get the beach landing craft across the coral which gets exposed and is out of the water. Snorkelling and all other coral viewing activities continue.
