-What You Can Expect-

Departing from Cairns, embark on a 1.5-hour journey aboard our air-conditioned catamaran to reach Sunlover Moore Reef Pontoon on the Outer Great Barrier Reef.

Younger guests can enjoy fun-filled moments in our enclosed ocean pool or experience the thrill of swirling down Sunlover’s 30-metre spiral waterslide into the ocean.

Looking to stay dry? Try our semi-submersible, glass-bottom boat tours, or visit the underwater observatory, where you can marvel at the most impressive natural fish tank. At Sunlover we want visitors of all ages and abilities to fully immerse themselves in the beauty of the reef, with its vibrant coral, fascinating marine life, including turtles, and more.

The journey continues with a visit to Fitzroy Island where lunch will be served, and then youll have a delightful 2-hour afternoon stay on this beautiful tropical paradise.

Fitzroy Island is a Favourite among Cairns locals, with 99% of its landscape covered in lush tropical rainforest, complemented by granite outcrops, open woodlands, mangroves, and coral-fringed beaches.

Additionally, we provide snorkel equipment as part of this tour.

Experience the best of both worlds effortlessly – the mesmerizing Great Barrier Reef and the serene beauty of Fitzroy Island, complete with a wide range of water activities – all in one single, unforgettable day.
