Their knowledge and expertise is unparalleled and they give a comprehensive overview on this most unique of locations in the world.

  • star rating  Definitely book a day trip with Adele + Stuart! Our family fished, swam, snorkelled and learned so much about this stunning part of the world - the reef, the rainforest,... read more and the people.
    We ate a delicious lunch of fresh prawns, crab, homemade salads and brownie! on a tiny uninhabited island.
    It feels so good supporting small businesses, and you come away with an enriching experience that is far more personalised than if you booked a large charter tour.
    Thank you Adele + Stuart for showing us these stunning islands, reef and all the wildlife. We wish you the very best.

    We were provided with loads of useful information, advice and guidance that proved to be very helpful.

    Our transfers were great and very convenient and delivered us right to the front door of our holiday accommodation on the island (including our luggage and our provisions) that all arrived safe and dry!

    We also had the opportunity to spend half a day with Adele and Stuart on a a tour of the islands in the Family Group of Islands and then we hit the water for some snorkeling on the reef where we saw turtles, giant clams and other amazing tropical fish and coral.

    I highly recommend these guys and we cannot wait to get back soon!

Mission Beach: The Adventurer’s Paradise

“My favourite place is North Queensland. It has for a naturalist everything. It has an amazing rainforest which is quite unlike any other rainforest in the world.

“Not only does it have that but down on the coast it has the Great Barrier Reef.”

“On top of that there’s terrific wine and food, so that’s the place for me.”

Sir David Attenbourgh

Acceptance speech for the 2017 Britain-Australia Society Award

Fairy ring corals 🤗 ~ ~ You find them in the sh Fairy ring corals 🤗 ~ ~ You find them in the shallows where the Porites sp.can no longer grow up. So they grow out instead. ~ ~ As they grow out their tops are colonised by other reef animals like clams, Christmas tree worms, sponges and even other corals. ~ ~ Fun fact: Porites sp. Is a slow growing coral and around here they grow about one centimetre a year. ~ ~ So you can estimate the age of these slow growing corals by measuring it's diameter. ~ ~ Our boat is 6 m long, or 600 cm, so how old do you think this coral is?

Tourism Reef Portecition Initiative winter update. Tourism Reef Portecition Initiative winter update. Yes, it’s been a while since we’ve done one of these. And that’s because the weather has been so absolutely horrible. The winds have really played havoc with our ability to get out and do the surveys this whole winter. ~ ~ Luckily the winds came good for five, yes five, days in the middle of August and we put in a herculean effort to get the whole quarter’s stewardship done at Eddy and Beaver Reef, the Family and Brook Islands. ~ ~ Happy to report that The Reef was looking stunning this winter. The days we were out we were treated to 15m secchi depths! ~ ~ We found no unusual disease patterns or bleaching. Crown of Thorns starfish and the coral eating snail Drupella were not found. ~ ~ Tourism weekly surveys were challenging as we were only able to complete the surveys once every two to three weeks owing to poor visibility and sea state. ~ ~ The reef at Bedarra isn’t showing any signs of stress and looked stunning on the days we were able to get in the water. ~ ~ Unfortunately a section of the reef has suffered significant damage after being hit by a boat not once but twice. We’ll be monitoring the recovery of these sections of reef. ~ ~ All you need to bring is your sense of adventure! ~ ~ Credit where credit is due: while traveling on Bandjin and Girramay sea country photo by @phlipvids on board with @greatbarrierreefsafaris The Tourism Reef Protection Initiative is funded by the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority as part of the Australian Government’s Reef Protection Package ~ ~ #AdventureAwaits #greatbarrierreefsafaris #gbrsafaris #slowtravel #LoveTheReef #SeeAustralia #HolidayHereThisYear #dayslikethese #ThisisQueensland #explorecassowarycoast #tropicalmissionbeach #cassowarycoast #missionbeachqld #alwaysexploring #lifeofadventure #foreverexploring #adventuretravel #comeandsaygday #experienceiseverything #beautifuldestinations #QLDParks #reefprotectioninitiative #eyeonthereef #greatbarrierreef #TRPI13 #seethereef #protectthereef
