Days, itineraries and experiences can be tailored specifically to your needs, whether it’s a half day trip, full day trip, snorkelling, scuba diving or free diving and sunbathing, island hopping and enjoying, or a little bit of everything, we’ll customise a package to suit you.
Small groups on our own boat, professional service and equipment for you, your family and friends to explore the wonders of the Great Barrier Reef. Memories to last a lifetime.
It’s time to get excited. A trip to the Great Barrier Reef should be memorable for all the right reasons, and it will be with ABC Reef Safaris Port Douglas. Our sites offer all the heart could desire, simply spectacular coral gardens and bommies, exciting drift snorkels and dives along pristine coral and fan walls and an abundance of big and small reef creatures.
We deliberately avoid setting a firm daily schedule, ensuring wildlife acts naturally and doesn’t begin shying from busy spots so the surprise, “big ticket” sightings are frequent and the amazing biodiversity of our sites remains intact.
ABC Reef Safaris Port Douglas is a truly low impact operation. Our footprint is tiny compared to the usual boats that take people to the reef. ABC the only way to go!
