Great Barrier Reef from Townsville

Experience the Great Barrier Reef on board our custom-built day vessel. Adrenalin is the only Great Barrier Reef tour operationg from Townsville.

Your Destination on the Great Barrier Reef
The Central Great Barrier Reef is a little further off the Queensland Coast than other sections and as a result has some of the best sites of the whole Great Barrier Reef. We have a number of sites in the region and will choose the best site on the day dependent on weather and other contributing factors. Some sites feature large coral bommies with white coral sand sea floors, others have large gutters running through the coral occupied by hundreds of reef fish, and colorful coral walls occupied by innumerable marine animals in crystal clear water.

Depths on the reefs range from 1 metre to 20 metres making it ideal for snorkellers, beginner and experienced divers. Big schools of trevally and bait fish are common as well as a myriad of colourful reef fish including Parrot fish, Maori wrasse, Clown fish, Angel fish, Turtles, Stingrays, White tip and Black tip reef sharks often sighted.

Please note: We will not be providing lunch until the 30th of November 2020. The tour has been discounted $15 to compensate for this.
