Join us for an exhilarating ride to snorkel the pristine untouched Great Barrier Reef off the Daintree Coast at Cape Tribulation....be snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef in 25 minutes! This half day eco tour visits two different snorkel destinations, each with an extraordinary array of marine life and coral species. After a fast 25 minute ride, you are ready to snorkel two fabulous locations at

Mackay and Undine Reefs. On most days, you can snorkel alongside sea turtles, which are found in abundance swimming over reefs full of colourful coral, along with myriads of tropical fish, eagle rays, giant clams and starfish. The tour begins at Cape Tribulation beach where you board the vessel bound for the tropical waters of the Great Barrier Reef. The Ocean Safari vessel takes a maximum of 25 passengers allowing guests to experience tropical paradise and the pleasure of a small group. The vessel is based on the original design of a rescue craft and is a rigid inflatable boat driven by 700hp engines. The experienced Skipper and Eco Host ensure the trip is filled with fun and appreciation of the Great Barrier Reef and the coastal rainforest of the Daintree, two world heritage areas side by side. The Ocean Safari check in office is also home to Safari Lodge. Situated just 400 metres from the beach, Safari Lodge offers both Safari Huts and camp sites in the tropical Cape Tribulation rainforest and is the perfect base for exploring this famous region. Far away from the stresses of city life, the Safari Lodge offers comfortable and affordable accommodation and a range of facilities in the tropical rainforest including a swimming pool, fully equipped camp kitchen, amenities block with toilets and showers and laundry. Sleep in the jungle and enjoy the sounds of the rainforest at night, or rise early to experience the sunrise over beautiful Myall beach only minutes away. Also located onsite, the Turtle Rock Cafe offers fresh wholesome food, great coffee and outdoor dining, with a casual friendly atmosphere. With a menu offering healthy sandwiches and wraps, burgers, cakes, muffins and delicious meals made to order. The Turtle Rock Cafe showcases the wide variety of delicious produce the Tropical North Queensland region has to offer.

Eye spy, with my little eye…

Before you freak, this little fella is a blacktip reef shark and can often be seen cruising the shallows of Mackay Reef. These harmless things are far more frightened of our resident snorkelers than you’d be if it - and are stunning to witness on the Great Barrier Reef! 🦈

Welcome to Cape Tribulation - where two World Heritage Area’s collide.

Where ideas in the group chat turn to natural beauty found in few other places…

Where you can walk through the Daintree Rainforest, and step straight onto a boat to take you to the Great Barrier Reef… and then swim with turtles, Nemo, insane coral before kicking back on a little sand cay in the middle of the coral sea…

Sounds like it’s worth a little Queensland getaway, right?
