Science on the reef

A NEW tour has launched in Cairns by Passions of Paradise, with a focus on marine science and conservation.

Resulting from an expansion of the operator’s Marine Biologist for a Day program, travellers will have the option of snorkelling to participate in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority’s Eye on the Reef Rapid Monitoring.

Participants will be accompanied by a ‘Master Reef Guide’ who will help them identify the various species of coral and fish in the region, while specialist diving options are also available to observe coral planting on the reef.
