Croisière sur la Grande Barrière de Corail et MOUA au départ de Townsville ou de Magnetic Island
Description
Premier du genre dans l’hémisphère Sud, le MOUA agira pour mettre en valeur la conservation, la restauration et l’éducation des récifs à l’échelle mondiale. Le site situé sur le récif John Brewer est riche en histoire, avec un lien fort avec notre culture indigène et le tourisme marin. The Coral Greenhouse – première conception de bâtiment immergé par l’artiste de classe mondiale Jason deCaires Taylor est un voyage bucket list que personne ne devrait manquer! La serre, que beaucoup de gens considèrent comme des murs de verre remplis de fruits ou de fleurs, présente plutôt un beau mélange d'art et de science. Des arbres, des sculptures réalistes et des jardins de corail font de cette stupéfiante structure de 72 m un pays merveilleux pour les plongeurs. Avec de nombreux récifs à explorer à proximité et des profondeurs allant de 1 à 20 mètres, il est idéal pour les plongeurs en apnée, Juniors et confirmés. Sur le récif, les bancs de poissons appâts sont communs ainsi qu'une abondance de poissons de récif colorés. On observe souvent des tortues, des raies, des requins de récif à pointe blanche et noire.

The boat was cool, the guides were good, the food was plentiful, the weather played really nice, and we all had a great day
Hi there! Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We’re really glad to hear you had such a great day on the water and enjoyed the boat, crew, food, and conditions. It’s always wonderful when everything comes together for a perfect trip. We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to see you on board again in the future! Warmly,
Thoroughly enjoyable day trip out to John Brewer and Loadstone Reefs with Adrenalin Snorkel & Dive. We were gifted with calm conditions albeit a slight current due to the full moon. Viz was ordinary (not the tour's fault) at John Brewer but was able to see MOUA and the surrounding reef life. We had favourable wind conditions and were able to visit Loadstone Reef which was better viz (full sun at the time of visiting helped), so a more enjoyable snorkel. Professional tour with exceptional/attentive staff including Master Reef Guides on board to fill you with everything "reef" and a top skipper full of knowledge and great stories. We are seasoned snorkellers and did the Introductory Scuba Dive - well worth it albeit low viz at JBR. Our dive instructor, Pierre, was amazing. He was professional, extremely patient and gently encouraging which made us feel safe and comfortable the whole time. What more could you want for your first dive?! Iced water, cordial, fresh fruit, biscuits, protein and salad wraps (and sauces) provided and enjoyed. A big thank you to all the crew - Paul, Rob, Caitlin, Pierre, Daniel & Nadine for a memorable day out on the reef off Townsville. Highly recommended.
Hi Johanna, Thank you for such a wonderful review! We're so pleased you enjoyed your day on the reef and that your first introductory dive was such a positive experience. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Pierre, Paul, Rob, Caitlin, Daniel, Nadine, and the rest of the crew. While visibility is something we can't always control, we're glad you were still able to enjoy MOUA, Lodestone Reef, and all the experiences the day had to offer. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back on board again soon! Warmly,
The most enjoyable and unique experience. The crew was helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, and made safety their priority.
Went out to John Brewer Reef and the Museum of Underwater Art! The crew were excellent and we had a great day! Will be back to do Yongala at some stage!
Hi Olissia, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re so glad you enjoyed your day at John Brewer Reef and the Museum of Underwater Art, and that our crew helped make it special. We’d love to welcome you back for the S.S. Yongala Wreck one day, it’s an unforgettable trip. See you again soon! Warmly,
Fabulous day out on the reef We had one scuba dive through the underwater museum and a glorious snorkel over the reef. Staff were great A little rough on the way out so some wet travelers, but that’s part of the adventure. If you need a comfortable reef trip, go on a big boat from Airlie.
Hi Nelly, Thank you for your lovely review! 🌊 We’re so glad you had a fabulous day exploring the reef and diving through the underwater museum, such a unique experience! Great to hear you enjoyed the snorkelling and that our crew helped make the day a good one. And yes, a little ocean adventure is all part of the experience sometimes 😊 We hope to see you back out on the reef again soon! 🐠✨ Warmly,
We got to explore the reef and the MOUA together as a family and now have amazing memories of the beauty and abundance of marine life plus the unforgettable underwater statues. The staff were excellent - they were all so knowledgeable, capable and friendly! They kept us safe and provided excellent service and information about snorkelling and the reef.
Hi there! Thank you so much for your kind words! 🌊 We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed exploring the reef and the MOUA together as a family, it really is a special experience, and those underwater statues make it unforgettable. It’s wonderful to know our crew helped you feel safe, informed, and well looked after throughout the day. We hope to welcome you all back again for more ocean memories soon 🐠✨ Warmly,
I went to the Great Barrier Reef and what an experience it was! From start to finish the staff were so friendly and helpful really making you feel welcome throughout the whole day. It was my first time diving and I paid for the two introductory dives as well as the snorkelling and the instructors were crystal clear with their explanations and really patient with us newcomers and by the second dive we got to really explore the Great Barrier Reef. Was a 10/10 day would really recommended using these guys for such a great day out.
Hi Will, Thank you so much for your lovely review! 🌊 We’re thrilled to hear you had such a great first diving experience and felt supported by our crew throughout the day. It’s amazing that you got to really explore the reef on your second dive, there’s nothing like seeing it for the first time! We hope to welcome you back again soon 🐠💙 Warmly,
Fabulous day trip to snorkel on Reef and around the MOUA, simply stunning all round. Crew were exceptional, attentive to everyone’s needs ( experienced divers and novice snorklers alike) . Was a joy to experience the Reef for the first time and the care and passion the Captain and team hold the Reef and its regard.
Hi there, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We’re so glad you enjoyed your day on the Reef and around the MOUA. Our crew will be thrilled to hear their care and passion for the Reef made your first experience so special. We’d love to welcome you back again. Warmly,
Museum is for divers only. Snorkellers will only see the art from above. Everything else was outstanding
Hi Peter, Thanks so much for your review — we’re glad to hear you enjoyed the day overall! While the main MOUA structures are designed for divers, the Ocean Sentinels sculptures were specifically installed for snorkellers to enjoy too. Depending on the tide and visibility on the day, they can be appreciated from the surface. The sculptures sit at depths ranging from 3 to 7 metres, and many guests have a great view while snorkelling. We really appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you aboard again — maybe for a dive next time!
This was such a fun trip even for someone who did not learn to dive in time. Snorkeling was top notch, guides were super helpful and knowledgeable about the reef and most importantly seemed to really care about its preservation and educating us about it! Lots of snacks as a huge bonus :)
Hi 181briet, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We’re delighted to hear you had such a fun day on the Reef and enjoyed the snorkelling experience. Our crew take great pride in sharing their knowledge and passion for reef conservation, so it’s lovely to know that came through. We’re also happy to hear the snacks were a hit! We hope you can join us again one day — maybe next time for a dive.
