Diving in the Great Barrier Reef gives you the
opportunity to explore the world’s largest structure composed of living
organisms. It is the world’s largest coral reef ecosystem that’s made up of
over 2900 individual reefs and 900 islands. Moreover, it is the only living
organism structure that can be clearly seen from outer space – do you know
that? Divers, both beginners and experienced, visit this magical place to
experience the beauty that Great Barrier Reef is.
There are a number of diving sites at the reef –
protected and shallow areas for the first-timers and deeper sites for the ones
who are experienced. Both ways, visitors will make the most of their Great
Barrier Reef holidays by sighting marine life like never before. In the entire
length of the reef, for 2300 kilometres, there is a lot to discover, starting
from the coral reefs to the colourful fishes, turtles, sharks, manta rays and
more.
The Sunset Safaris’ Great Barrier Reef Tour Packages
include departures from the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Brisbane and have
amazing diving sites just 20 to 60 minutes away.
The Great Barrier Reef holidays packages include Snorkelling and Scuba Diving activities for all those people who want to get into
the water to behold the magical life underwater.
Snorkelling
lets you see fishes and corals that are found nowhere else in the world. The
experience will be worth remembering. Not only that, but you can also snorkel
around the ‘turtle cleaning station’.
It will be an amazing sight to watch turtles getting cleaned by little fishes.
If you’re not experienced in snorkelling, needn’t
worry! You can visit the Snorkel school on your Great Barrier Reef tours on the
day-1 and learn all that you need to know. You can then put your knowledge to
work. Moreover, the Snorkelling activity will be a completely guided
experience. Sounds easy now? Your Great Barrier Reef vacation will be a
memorable one anyhow!
Scuba
Diving is another adventurous activity the world’s largest
coral reef ecosystem is popularly known for. Starting from sea turtles, sharks,
manta rays, colourful fishes to potato cods, you’ll see more than everything
once you dive deep into the waters. Sunset Safaris’ Great Barrier Reef packages
include scuba diving as an optional adventure. However, you must try it out at
least once in your life for the ultimate marine life experience, especially if
you’re planning to visit Australia.
Other
Things to do on Great Barrier Reef Vacations
If you want more out of your Great Barrier Reef
holidays, we suggest you do more than just diving. Before you start thinking
about what options you have, the Great Barrier Reef Tours
have a lot in store for you, namely Whale
and Turtle Watching, Glass -Bottom Boat Rides and Coral Cay Walk.
Visiting the reef between the months June-November is
a great time to watch the migrating Humpback and Minke Whales. While you visit
them in your luxurious vessels, you might experience a friendly encounter with
these mightiest of the creatures.
Similarly, you can look for the Great Barrier Reef
holidays packages from November to March if you want to experience watching
live turtles – also the birth of baby sea turtles. We can already sense your
excitement!
A visit to Mon Repos will allow you to watch the sea
turtles crawl up the beach to lay eggs. That is a wondrous sight to behold.
When the eggs hatch and baby turtles take birth and
finally make their way out to the sea, it is an even more beautiful experience.
Coral
Cay Walk is for the curious adventurers who want to know it
all about the coral reefs. You can get down your vessels and walk along the
reefs. It is both an enjoyable and educative experience. Your Great Barrier
Reef tour packages have an activity for people who do not want to get into the
water, the Glass-Bottom Boat Ride.
Here, visitors can explore the marine life sitting in a vessel that has a glass
bottom to view all that’s underneath.
No matter what, Great Barrier Reef tours are all about
exploring nature in its wildest form which is why they are one of the ultimate
Australian adventure tours!
