Reefworld
and Heart Reef by Helicopter (Fly/Cruise) from Hamilton Island
Here's a fun day in the sun flying over the Great Barrier Reef by helicopter
before landing at the world famous Fantasea Reefworld, the largest floating resort
on Hardy Reef.
Reefworld is located on Hardy Reef, a flat coral reef accessible from
Hamilton Island. With over 400 species of coral, Hardy reef is a living
wonderland and ideal for snorkeling and scuba divers.
On the helicopter flight you will see just how spectacular and beautiful
the reef is in a way that you can't if you go by boat. Fly over some
magnificent islands, beautiful coral
atolls and the amazing Heart Reef.
This has to be the highlight of any trip to the Great Barrier Reef,
and you really can only see Heart Reef from the air.
After the helicopter ride you land at Reefworld where you will enjoy
a delicious buffet lunch and some of the best snorkeling
to be found in tropical waters.
The
abundant array of fish will keep you so occupied that before you know
it, it's time to board the cruise vessel to return to Hamilton Island.
For those who do not want to go snorkeling, you can enjoy coral viewing
in a semi submersible, or laze around the deck at Reefworld with a cool
drink.
Prices for the helicopter flight, reefworld adventure and return cruise
to Hamilton Island start around $490 per person.
