PHANTOM - Port Douglas Australia...
Day Charters: - Outer Great Barrier Reef
Flexible departure and return times makes
Phantom the perfect choice for your day at
the reef. In general we provide
complimentary luxury car transfers from your
Port Douglas accommodation to the Marina
Mirage at 8 am. This enables the vessel to
depart at 830 am. Guests have at least 5 hrs
at the outer reef to snorkel, scuba dive,
fish and relax whilst enjoying a gourmet
seafood lunch. Returning to the Marina by
4:30 pm for car transfers back to their
accommodation.
Areas we visit on a day charter are pristine
coral gardens and coral bommies on the Outer
Great Barrier Reef .The outer reef has both
soft and hard corals in a diverse range of
shapes and colours. Water visibility can
vary from 20m to over 100m. Informative reef
books on the vessel enable guests to learn
further about the reef, coral, formation and
marine life. Phantom has several moorings
that are exclusive to Phantom guests only.
Depending on the guests and the activities
will determine which sites we go to.
Having operated in the area for the past 10
yrs, Phantom crew have an extensive
knowledge of the Great Barrier Reef. This
enables us to visit a diverse array of reef
areas.
For those wishing to visit an island for
more of a beach day with less travel time,
there is Low Isles.
Low Isles: - Inner Reef
Low Isles is only 8 nm from the leads of
Port Douglas and provides a picture perfect
location. Low Isles provides a sheltered
lagoon area where the coral gardens extend
out from the small vegetated coral cay.
Guests can either be shuttled to the island
via Phantoms tender or snorkel and swim over
the coral gardens to the island. Be sure to
keep an eye out for the many turtles that
reside in the lagoon. Swaying palm trees
surround the island which only takes about
20 minutes to leisurely stroll around.
Informative walks lead to the automated
lighthouse in the centre of the island. |
