Option 1: Quicksilver Cruise

You will be collected from your hotel by the Quicksilver Cruises coach for transfer to the Port Douglas Marina.

Quicksilver takes you to Agincourt Reef, at the very outer edge of the Barrier Reef. Here, special reefs known as ‘ribbons’ run parallel to the Continental Shelf. Adjacent to the Coral Sea trench, these ribbon reefs are recognised as the most pristine eco-systems in the reef’s environment. Clear water provides the best possible underwater visibility, encourages rich coral growth and supports spectacular marine life. As the region’s outer reef pioneer, we chose the best location available to show you nature’s finest.
Upon arrival at the Port Douglas Marina you will be transferred by coach to your Port Douglas area accommodation.
