Guests of the Reefworld Premium pontoon can also join a guided snorkel safari, and follow one of Cruise Whitsundays' experienced guides to some special hotspots along the Reef. Head directly to the best locations on Hardy Reef, where Giant Maori Wrasse, rainbow coral formations, tropical fish, sea turtles and reef sharks are typically seen.
