The OceanQuest 3-Night Liveaboard is one of the best ways to truly experience the Outer Great Barrier Reef from Cairns!
Instead of rushing through a single-day trip, this multi-day adventure lets you slow down, explore deeper, and discover more of the reef’s spectacular marine life.
Spend four unforgettable days and three nights aboard the purpose-built OceanQuest floating reef hotel, visiting multiple dive and snorkel sites across Norman Reef, Saxon Reef, and Hastings Reef. With over 14 permanent moorings, every day brings new coral gardens, reef walls, and marine encounters.
Whether you’re a certified diver, beginner diver, or snorkeller, this experience offers incredible flexibility. Choose from guided dives, introductory dives, snorkelling sessions, or simply relax on deck soaking in the tropical views. At night, enjoy the reef from a completely different perspective with optional experiences like Sharks in the Dark or Fluoro Diving.
Between dives, unwind in comfortable air-conditioned cabins with private ensuites, relax in the lounge and bar, or stretch out on the sun deck. Delicious meals prepared by the onboard chef keep you fuelled for adventure throughout your stay.
If you’re looking for a true Great Barrier Reef immersion, the OceanQuest 3 Night Liveaboard delivers unmatched reef access, incredible marine life encounters, and the freedom to explore the reef from sunrise to sunset, and even after dark!
