Launched in 2015 explore the very outer Great Barrier Reef in luxury and style on a 24.5m private charter boat from Port Douglas. 

Our 24.5m power boat was custom designed for the conditions on the Great Barrier Reef and to take guests out to 3 spectacular dive and snorkel locations in comfort to the outer reaches of the Agincourt Ribbon Reefs off Port Douglas.

Our custom designed vessel travels daily from Port Douglas to Opal and Agincourt Reefs, both regarded as some of the most significant dive and snorkel sites of the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, a natural wonder.

Visiting three spectacular dive and snorkel reef sites in one day, guests can see the amazing diversity of marine life and spectacular coral gardens.

Catering for domestic and international guests, apprehensive snorkellers to the avid scuba diver, our private charter boat crew will ensure a safe and memorable day for all of your invited guests on our private charter boat.
