About this experience

Beyond the Whitsundays lies your destination: Reefworld, our spectacular, multi-level reef platform moored 39 nautical miles off the coast at the impressive Hardy Reef. This is where your unforgettable adventure on the Great Barrier Reef begins.

Immerse yourself in a fascinating underwater world – snorkeling, swimming or diving – and discover the colourful reef with its countless inhabitants. Those who prefer to stay dry can experience the reef from the comfort of our underwater observatory or on a trip in a semi-submarine, which gives you an up-close view of the ecosystem.

After a sumptuous buffet lunch, there is plenty of time to explore more or simply relax before returning to the mainland with unforgettable impressions – memories that will last a lifetime.
