ABC Reef Safaris’ reef boat, Independence for tours and private charters.

Independence is ABC Reef Safaris’ custom-built vessel designed for comfort, speed and access to exclusive reef sites. At 16m long and 5m wide, Independence is licensed for 25 passengers, but we limit day tours to just 12 guests, ensuring a spacious, small group experience. With a cruising speed of 19-20 knots and a shallow draft, Independence reaches pristine lagoons and sheltered coral gardens larger boats can’t visit. Onboard, you’ll find the latest snorkelling and scuba diving equipment, full safety gear, freshwater showers and comfortable deck space to relax between reef sessions. Fast, stable, and personal, Independence delivers unforgettable Great Barrier Reef adventures.
