Ocean Safari Tour

At Cape Tribulation Beach, board the Ocean Safari vessel bound towards the tropical waters of the Great Barrier Reef. The vessel, based on the design of a rescue craft, can hold a maximum of 25 passengers so you enjoy the comfort of being in a small group. It is a strong inflatable boat with 700hp engines. An experienced skipper and the eco host will be accompanying you to ensure that your trip is full of fun and appreciation for the Great Barrier Reef, as well as the coastal rainforest of the Daintree. Both of these are world heritage sites and are located side by side. Your ticket includes courtesy pick-ups from hotels in Cape Tribulation.

After your tour, head over to the Ocean Safari check-in office, which is home to the Turtle Rock Café and Safari Lodge. Tuck into freshly cooked meals or great coffee (at your own expense) at the cafe. Or head over to the Safari Lodge, located just 400 meters from the beach, and stay at the Cape Tribulation rainforest (optional, at your own expense). The lodge has huts, campsites, a swimming pool, and a camp kitchen. It's ideal for sleeping in the jungle and listening to the sounds of the rainforest. If you stay over and rise early, you can catch the sunrise over the lovely Myall Beach.

This tour has an advanced eco accreditation.
