Meet The Little Sister
Ocean Safari
Ocean Safari, often referred to as the ‘little sister’ of Ocean Rafting, offers a multi-award-winning exhilarating adventure to snorkel the pristine, untouched Great Barrier Reef off the Daintree Coast at Cape Tribulation for the past 16 years.
This half-day Great Barrier Reef tour takes you to two stunning snorkel destinations, each brimming with an extraordinary array of marine life and vibrant coral species. After a swift 25-minute ride, you'll dive into the breathtaking waters of Mackay Reef, ready to explore its spectacular underwater world.
On this tour, you will be in for a chance to snorkel alongside a vast array of marine life and colorful coral, including, sea turtles, tropical fish, eagle rays, giant clams and starfish. Whilst snorkeling amongst the Great Barrier Reef you can often see the coastal rainforest of the Daintree along mainland beach, incorporating two world heritage sites side by side.
The Ocean Safari tour begins at Cape Tribulation beach where you board the vessel bound for the tropical waters. The Ocean Safari vessel takes a maximum of 25 passengers allowing guests to experience tropical paradise and the pleasure of a small group.
The Ocean Safari check-in office also hosts the Turtle Rock Café and Safari Lodge. Located just 400 meters from the beach, Safari Lodge provides comfortable cabins and campsites nestled in the lush Cape Tribulation rainforest, making it an ideal base for exploring this renowned area. The Turtle Rock Café serves up freshly prepared, wholesome meals and excellent coffee, all in a relaxed, friendly setting with inviting outdoor dining.
