Come and experience the spectacular outer Great Barrier Reef without the
crowds! With a maximum of just 12 passengers and an attentive crew of 3,
you can enjoy a more personal reef experience, exclusive to a small group.
Enjoy 2 Days/1 Night aboard Coral Sea Dreaming, a 16 metre modern steel
ketch. She is spacious and comfortable, with a beautiful wooden interior
and different cabin options to please the most discerning traveller.
The pristine outer reef sites we go to are not visited by the masses and
have been chosen for their unique coral formations and abundant marine life.
Without a real rigid schedule, we allow you to go at your own pace and to be
as active or as relaxed as you like. Whether you are an avid diver or
looking to experience diving for the very first time, both certified and
introductory dives are available.
For the beginner or diver that needs a refresher, the smaller groups provide
a fun setting where the utmost attention is paid to your safety and ensuring
that you get the most value and enjoyment from your experience. If you are a
more advanced diver you'll be able to explore and discover the wonders of
the Great Barrier Reef without a large number of other divers surrounding
you. To challenge you as a diver we provide the option for night dives,
drift dives, swim-throughs, as well as following ravines and canyons.
Diving not your thing or perhaps you are travelling with a partner who
doesn't dive? Because of the magnificent clear waters, snorkelling is also
an excellent way to experience the reef, and you can enjoy it at all of the
sites we visit.
Join in and help sail the boat or just 'supervise' from the sundeck. Our
friendly and experienced crew will pay every attention to your comfort and
well-being, to help make sure that you return from your holiday with great
memories to last a lifetime. and quite often some new friends.
