An excellent sightseeing experience for a quick visit to explore the Great Barrier Reef is by flying to the reef by helicopter.
After spending time snorkeling or taking in the beauty of the island, let your return journey to Cairns be by boat.
The tour includes use of snorkeling gear and a well-prepared buffet lunch. There are three options to choose from, travel by helicopter both ways, fly there and return by boat or else do the trip both ways by boat.
