Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to go on a Great Barrier Reef multi-day tour?
The best time to explore the reef is from June to October when the waters are calm, visibility is high, and marine life is out in full force.
However, visiting during the off-peak season (November to May) also has its perks! The water is warmer, making it more comfortable for swimming, and you may get to witness the incredible coral spawning phenomenon.
Plus, with fewer tourists around, you can enjoy a more peaceful and less crowded experience on the reef.
Do I need diving experience to join a liveaboard tour on the Great Barrier Reef?
No problem if you’re new to diving! Many liveaboard tours include beginner-friendly courses so you can learn the basics while you explore.
How many days should I spend on a multi-day tour of the Great Barrier Reef?
We recommend spending at least 3 to 5 days to fully immerse yourself in the reef’s magic, with plenty of time for diving, snorkelling, and exploring.
What should I pack for an overnight trip on the Great Barrier Reef?
Essentials include swimwear, sunscreen, a hat, and a reusable water bottle. Plus, don’t forget an underwater camera to capture those epic moments!
Are there non-diving activities available on Great Barrier Reef multi-day tours?
Absolutely! You can enjoy activities like snorkelling, sunset cruises, and glass-bottom boat rides—perfect for those who want to stay above the waves.
