Suit up and head offshore to explore the incredible world beneath the waves at the UNESCO World Heritage Site Great Barrier Reef. Filled with incredible beaches, coral reefs, and turquoise blue waters, you can swim, snorkel, dive, and enjoy a living masterpiece that is so big it can be seen from outer space. ### Day 2: Willis Island (Cruising) **Arrives:** 02:00 PM · **Departs:** 03:00 PM ### Day 3: Townsville **Arrives:** 01:00 PM · **Departs:** 08:00 PM With an average of 320 days of sunlight every year, we can think of just as many reasons to visit Townsville. Situated on the shore of Cleveland Bay in Queensland, Townsville borders the central section of the Great Barrier Reef and enjoys warm temperatures year round—reason enough for us to want to visit. ### Day 4: Airlie Beach **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 08:00 PM This sunny port on Australia’s northeast coast is in a perpetual state of vacation, and with the Great Barrier Reef on its doorstep, it’s easy to see why. Small in size but with a beachy, cosmopolitan vibe, Airlie Beach offers excellent shopping, dining, and nightlife, plus a long list of outdoor activities that range from sunbathing to soaring in a seaplane ### Day 5: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 6: Gladstone **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 05:00 PM ### Day 7: Fraser Island, Australia **Arrives:** 01:00 PM · **Departs:** 08:00 PM Just off the coast of Queensland is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Fraser Island. At 76 miles in length and 13 miles at its widest point (124 and 22 kilometers respectively), it’s the largest sand island in the world, and the only place on Earth where ancient rainforests grow in sand along the banks of pristine creeks. ### Day 8: Brisbane **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 10:00 PM Brisbane—or Brizzy if you’re a Brisbanite—is one of the oldest cities in Australia. Often referred to as the Gateway to Queensland, we think this river city might be one of the most underrated in Australia. Get your bearings with a ride on the Wheel of Brisbane—think London Eye only down under—an iconic landmark that offers bird’s eye views of the entire city below. And if that’s not high enough for you, opt for a helicopter tour that will give you a better lay of the land and the surrounding ar... ### Day 9: At Sea Enjoy a relaxing day at sea exploring the ship's amenities. ### Day 10: Newcastle, NSW, AU **Arrives:** 08:00 AM · **Departs:** 08:00 PM ### Day 11: Sydney, Australia **Arrives:** 06:30 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM Head Down Under to the state capital of New South Wales and the most populous city in Australia, the one and only Sydney. With a sunny attitude and a climate to match, Sydney is a vibrant place that combines the best of the beach, with the convenience of the city. Your first stop should be the UNESCO World Heritage-designated Sydney Opera House.
