Day Two: Haba Outer Barrier Reef Cruise

Your day begins with a courtesy coach transfer from your accommodation in Port Douglas to the Marina Mirage. Coffee, tea and muffins are available onboard upon your arrival and during the Safety Briefing. Departure for the Great Barrier Reef is at 8:30 with little over an hour travel time.

The rest of the day is yours for Snorkelling, Diving or simply relaxing right on the Outer Reef. All water sports create an appetite and a day on the Reef would not be the same without a delicious, fresh tropical buffet lunch.

Following lunch a Reef Brief will commence on the top deck during which the Marine Naturalist will explain to you the corals, fish and ecology of the Great Barrier Reef environment. Haba then moves on to the second unique location where you carry on your water activity or simply relax on the spacious vessel.

Introductory and Certified diving is offered at an additional cost. All certified diving includes a dive guide. You have the opportunity to complete up to 3 dives in a day. Introductory Dives are conducted with a maximum ratio of 4 students per instructor. A souvenir introductory dive certificate is awarded to each successful diver. Please note, some medical conditions including asthma and high blood pressure may prohibit scuba diving. Please ask if you have any concerns.

The afternoon site brings with it the opportunity to participate in the Guided Snorkel Tour where the information discussed in the Reef Brief is brought to life before your eyes. A Glass Bottom Boat tour is also scheduled during the day. Following Afternoon Tea the boat departs the reef for arrival back in Port Douglas at approximately 4:30 pm.

Day Three: Billy Tea Cape Tribulation Safari

Your naturalist guide will meet you at your accommodation. The first 1/2 of the journey north is very scenic with beautiful ocean views in contrast with the lush farmland around Mossman. After morning tea you will learn about the mangrove rainforests, and hopefully observe local wildlife including the Estuarine Crocodiles on the Daintree River Cruise.

Ascending the Alexandra Range pause for a panoramic view of World Heritage Rainforest merging with the azure colours of the Coral Sea. Experience the rainforest first hand on an elevated National Park boardwalk. Your guide will offer interesting flora and fauna interpretation.

A delicious barbecue lunch with freshly made salads is prepared while you have the chance to hand feed a kangaroo and enjoy a cold drink from the bar.

This tour offers a little more... It takes you beyond Cape Tribulation along the 4WD only 'Bloomfield Track', arriving at pristine Emmagen Creek. You have the opportunity to take a refreshing swim. Look for fish and turtles in the creek, butterflies and exotic birds in the trees and often Goannas on the forest floor. Indulge in a feast of tropical fruit, a complimentary glass of white wine or savour a cup of Traditional Billy Tea, all of which enhance the tranquil surrounds.

At Cape Tribulation Beach there is a little time to swim (seasonal) or stroll along the beach and boardwalk where the Rainforest meets the Reef.
