Kiwis can once again spend the night floating above the Great Barrier Reef
The transformed Reefworld has opened, now offering a more elevated and exclusive experience. It has become an overnight- only pontoon exclusively for Reefsleep and Reefsuite guests. Journey Beyond ceo Chris Tallent says it offers one of the world’s most immersive overnight reef experiences.
The overnight experience is all-inclusive, covering the cruise to/from the pontoon, premium dining and beverages, guided snorkelling with marine experts, and accommodation, which consists of 16 four-poster Reefbeds complete with privacy screens as well as the underwater Reefsuite rooms.
Agents also have the ability to upsell, with optional activities including scuba diving and scenic helicopter flights.
“As part of Journey Beyond’s AUD40 million investment into the region, and continued premiumisation of its Cruise Whitsundays product portfolio, including the build of a new 36-metre catamaran, the refurbishment of Reefworld represents our commitment to taking guests further and elevating their experience on the Great Barrier Reef,” Tallent adds.
