Friday & Saturday:
Osprey Reef.
Australia's Coral Sea reefs are renown for crystal
clear water with average visibility in excess of
100 feet. Two days can be spent diving at Osprey
Reef, including North Horn, well known for its shark
action. You can expect to see grey whalers, silvertips,
reef sharks, occasional hammerheads, schooling barracuda,
trevally, and other pelagics. The landscape is amazing
with sheer walls laced with gorgonians, sea whips,
and bright yellow soft corals, rising from thousands
of feet below.
Sunday:
Depending on the prevailing
weather conditions
there are two options for today's itinerary
Option 1:
Return to the Ribbon Reefs # 3 to 5 to dive several unvisited sites throughout
the day. On Sunday evening we will cruise overnight back to Cairns
Option 2:
Dive Bougainville Reef, another reef complex in
the Coral Sea with spectacular marine life, canyons
and crystal clear water.
Monday:
Arrive Cairns approximately
06:30am. Breakfast will be served on board and hotel
transfer will be arranged for approx 07:30am.
