    Cairns 2e jour

    16 photos

    Je suis parti tout excité vers 8:30 pour le terminal de Cairns, là un bateau nous attendais pour partir vers la Grande Barrière de Corail. Le temps sur le continent est pourri mais une fois en mer le ciel était plus clair et le soleil était la. Pendant la traversée j'ai rempli des questionnaires médicaux et j'ai eu le premier cours de plongée. Le …

    33 degrees and diving with Nemo...

    Now this feels like a holiday! I fell in love with Cairns as soon as I landed. It was 25 degrees when we got off the plane and hasn't dropped lower since. Luckily because I’m dating an air conditioning engineer we have rigged the room air con so nights are chilled and sleep-filled! I also have to spend a minute by saying how much I love the …

    The Reef and the Rainforest

    5 photos


    It's been a great two days - very long, but wonderful. We spent an entire day out on Marine One - a huge floating pontoon out at the Great Barrier Reef that we reached by an express jet catamaran. Lots of snorkeling and lounging on the sun deck (mostly in the shade of course) and a little lunch along the way. The weather was perfect - sunny, …

    Had abit of time to spare so thought I'd write a blog to let you know whats been going on! So, on my first real day here (after caking myself in suncream!!) I decided to head out and see what Cairns had to offer! It was about a 20 minute walk to the main town area from my hostel so, I made sure I got up extra early to walk …

Having been so tired last night and waking again to the dreaded phone alarm- making me think that i was back home getting up for work then waking up and actually …

    "i love grapies. to me, you're a grapey."

    We're still in Dougie's Backpackers Resort in our two-man tent with beds, we absolutely love it here, everyone here is super friendly and the nights are really social without being ridiculous, which is a sound adjustment after Cairns which was all a bit crazy and busy. If you ever come to Port Douglas, deffffinitely stay here, most people we've …

    Hi there

    What an amazing day. I mean I have been snorkeling with the fish before in Mexico, but honestly you have seen nothing, until you snorkel with the fish at the Great Barrier Reef.

    Had an amazing day, the corral is amazing, the fish are incredible, the water is unbelievably blue. We left early this morning, and got back at 5 …

    Cairns part 2

    Once we arrived back from Cape Tribulation we booked into our new hostel which was much cleaner and quiter than our old one even though we still had people racing shopping trollys down the corridor at 3am. The next day we went to the Great Barrier Reef to scuba dive. We went on a large speed boat with about 100 people on it. We dived in groups of 4 …
