Scenic Helicopter Flight to Moore Reef and Return Snorkeling Cruise from Cairns

Highlights

Meet your helicopter pilot at the launch pad then take to the skies for your scenic flight over the Great Barrier Reef. Take in the view from the air before landing at the large pontoon at Moore Reef. The staff welcomes you and serves up a buffet lunch. Afterward, you can see the fish and coral reef up close while snorkeling. Alternatively you can see the reef without getting wet by taking a glass-bottom boat or a semi-submersible tour. Watch a fish-feeding presentation and check out the marine life in the touch tank. Enjoy the provided tea and coffee before your leisurely cruise back to Cairns.
