Reef Tours Cairns - see the Great Barrier Reef up close!

1. Underwater viewing - snorkeling and scuba diving offers for both experienced and novice reef visitors are available.
2. On board viewing - most tours offer glass bottom boat tours as well as semi-submarine tours. Some vessels also moor to a pontoon that has a built in underwater observatory.
3. From above - Heli flights available onboard some reef tours Cairns as well as heli tours departing Cairns township itself (or fly one way and cruise back).

With something for everyone you cannot visit Cairns without visiting the outer reef!
