Snorkelling

Passions of Paradise travels daily to two destinations. The first is to Michaelmas Cay and the second is to Paradise Reef.
Both locations have an abundance of fish and coral, and the coral is located right next to the boat so you don’t have to swim far to see it.

Soft coral is most common around the cay, while hard corals are found at Paradise Reef because the water is deeper. This means you get to snorkel two completely different reef systems in one day.

All snorkeling is in areas where coral formations rise to within a couple of meters of the surface and the snorkel gear is the highest quality. For nervous snorkellers, crew are on hand to teach you the finer points.

We have complimentary buoyancy vests, and we hold one of the very rare permits which allow our passengers access to the cay. This means you can learn to snorkel at the waters edge on the beach.

Glass Bottom Boat

For those passengers who wish to see the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef and not get wet, the company has recently built a custom designed glass bottom tender. A marine naturalist guided tour is offered at Michaelmas Cay.

As with all things we strive to do on Passions, we only carry small numbers to ensure that the experience is of high personal value.
