So large it can be seen from space, Trafalgar dedicates a full day to exploring the 2,300-kilometre (1,430 mile) long Great Barrier Reef. A high-speed catamaran will take you from Cairns out to the reef. Then it\u2019s time to meet the colourful locals! Snorkel around the tropical waters viewing the vivid marine life around you, or enjoy the coral reef from inside a semi-submersible underwater observatory. Exploring the World Heritage-protected reef is truly the experience of a lifetime.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" class=\"wp-image-11545\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2018\/08\/great-barrier-reef-coral-fish-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"coral reef great barrier reef\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/great-barrier-reef-coral-fish-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/great-barrier-reef-coral-fish-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/great-barrier-reef-coral-fish-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/great-barrier-reef-coral-fish-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/great-barrier-reef-coral-fish.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong><em>GET INSPIRED BY: <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/tours\/australian-highlights\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong><em>Australian Highlights<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-connect-with-aboriginal-culture\"><strong>2.<\/strong> <strong>Connect with Aboriginal culture\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For more than 50,000 years the world\u2019s oldest living culture has passed down its rituals through storytelling. Immerse yourself in the culture of the Aboriginal people of Australia at the Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park when you \u2018Dive Into Culture\u2019 with Trafalgar. Embark on a journey across place and time with special Dreamtime stories, watch moving performances by an indigenous dance group, then sit down to dinner while listening to the mesmerising sounds of the didgeridoo.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-23982\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2020\/10\/Blog-photo-size-6-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Aboriginal dance performance\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-live-the-island-life-in-the-whitsundays\"><strong>3.

Surrounded by white sandy beaches and turquoise waters filled with marine life, the Whitsundays is a picture-perfect paradise. A boat will take you out to a floating pontoon in the middle of the World Heritage-listed reef. Swim or snorkel around the coral cays, soaking in an up-close view of the kaleidoscope of marine life before we break for a buffet lunch. Jump back in the water afterwards or take a scenic flight from the pontoon to see one of the seven natural wonders of the world from above, including the famous Heart Reef.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" class=\"wp-image-20352\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2020\/06\/whitsundays-beaches-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/whitsundays-beaches-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/whitsundays-beaches-330x186.jpeg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/whitsundays-beaches.jpeg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong><em>GET INSPIRED BY: <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/tours\/wonders-of-australia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong><em>Wonders of Australia<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-help-at-a-wildlife-hospital\"><strong>4.
