The boat generally moves to a second mooring where usually the crew will offer a guided snorkel tour for those interested in learning more about the reef. Afternoon tea is served. Move onto another reef site where passengers can undertake a night dive. Dinner is served once activities are completed (during winter, dinner may be served prior to night diving).  After dinner, passengers enjoy tea and coffee, a drink and tall tales.

Day Two:

Wake up on the reef and enjoy fresh coffee or tea with breakfast then take a morning swim, snorkel or dive. Depart to the next reef location, for more fun in the water before morning tea. After mid-morning depart for the last anchorage for the day for your last chance to soak up the sun or snorkel. Lunch is served before 'Hoisting the Sails' as you journey back to Cairns.
