The Tour

Experience natures finest with Australia's best and fly out to where two worlds meet. Experience the exhilaration of flying over the rainforest canopy of the World Heritage Rainforest; then, as you see the green change to the vivid blue of the water, you are flying over the 4th Natural Wonder of the World, The Great Barrier Reef!

Depart from Port Douglas via helicopter flying low over the Reef; your pilot will show you the wonders that live beneath the sea. Landing at Agincourt Reef, on the very edge of the Great Barrier Reef, join the Quicksilver vessel and floating platform for a day of activities.

Quicksilver has facilities for both swimmers and non-swimmers to enjoy this stunning reef world. Explore the reef snorkelling, from a semi submersible, or from the underwater observatory.

At the end of the day, re-board your helicopter for return flight from the Outer Barrier Reef back to Port Douglas, eliminate travelling by boat altogether. A complimentary return transfer back to your hotel in Port Douglas is included.
