Cruise Description |
6-Day Great Barrier Reef from Brisbane, Australia
Day 1: Brisbane
Whether you’re departing or arriving in Brisbane, you’ll be surrounded by an offering of adventure and endless amounts of fun. Think sunshine, relaxation and a holiday the whole family will love!
Day 2: Fun Day At Sea
No port today! It’s a great time to explore your ship and its exciting entertainment, food and activities! Or take it easy at the pool, spa, or... if you book a room with a balcony, enjoy the waves.
Day 3: Airlie Beach
The white sands of world-famous Whitehaven Beach, glass-bottom-boat day tours on the turquoise waters of the Coral Sea, high-speed catamaran joy rides and Hamilton Island region magic awaits Airlie Beach cruises with Carnival.
Travel to the heart of the 74 islands that comprise the picture-perfect Whitsunday Islands, an Australian treasure.
Snorkel from the Great Barrier Reef pontoon on an Airlie Beach 4, 7, 9, or 10-day cruise departing Sydney or Brisbane. Your fantastic holiday begins the moment you step onboard Carnival’s cruise ships. There’s a multitude of tastes, sights, natural wonders, sightseeing, themed events and year-round fun to suit the whole family.
Day 4: Cairns
Visit the coastal city of Cairns and enjoy a smorgasbord of fun and adventure. A Carnival Cruise Line holiday to Cairns offers the perfect mix of shore excursions the whole family will love - on water and land. Daintree Rainforest tours are the ideal way to experience the ecosystem of the wet tropics of Queensland (a UNESCO World Heritage Site). Go snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef, experience the Kuranda Scenic Railway and Skyrail, or have a tropical rainforest nature park adventure. A day trip to Cairns itself is always worth it, with amazing shopping on the Esplanade and scenic walks that will blow you away.
Day 5: Willis Island (Onboard Experience)
Established in 1921, the weather monitoring station is home to four weather observers and provides a cyclone early warning service for Queensland. This tiny island, located 450 kilometres east of Cairns, is home to fascinating wildlife, as well as a manned Australian Bureau of Meteorology weather monitoring station. While the cruise does not include a stop at Willis Island, you can catch glimpses of its natural beauty from the comfort of the ship. As you sail by, you'll have the opportunity to witness some amazing wildlife that calls this island home, including wedge-tailed shearwaters and sooty terns.
Day 6: Fun Day At Sea
No port today! It’s a great time to explore your ship and its exciting entertainment, food and activities! Or take it easy at the pool, spa, or... if you book a room with a balcony, enjoy the waves.
