One Day in AUSTRALIA | The Great Barrier Reef

A fun day in Cairns, northern Australia in which I take a boat to Green Island, part of the incredible Great Barrier Reef.

    not sure what your plans are in Brisbane, but a good day trip is Stradbroke Island (you can book a day trip), Tangalooma Islands you can snorkel amongst shipwrecks (may want to book accommodation for one night as its a bit of hike from here), if you are in central brisbane there is Southbank as its called with museums and free 'beach pool',. Mt cootha where you get a full view of brisbane and there is a cafe there and there are small hiking tracks, then one hour either north or south of brisbane there is the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast with their own sets of beaches! No crocs there!

    I live in Cairns and it really is the best place to live. Great weather, beautiful scenery in all directions and a nice lifestyle. I’d recommend actually going to the outer reef or Fitzroy instead of Green Island (it’s the last place I recommend for people going out on the reef) but it still looks like you had a nice day. If you can, get to the Atherton Tablelands or the Daintree - my favourite places in the region.

    Correction.........it took an hour and 45 minutes to get to the reef where we snorkeled. Well worth the long trip out. We were told the reef is strictly controlled and they grant only a certain number of permits to be able to dive and snorkel. I remember the platform being owned by a company called Quicksilver. I am not sure if it has any affiliation to the clothing company of the same name. Gabe, are you going to try to visit at least the edge of the Outback? Definitely worth the experience. We also visited an Aboriginal community, but prepare a bit in advance because travel into some Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities require a permit, similar to visiting a National Park. Well worth the information received from the native people-so interesting. I would not leave Australia without a deeper understanding of the Aboriginal people.

But the beaches in Cairns are 15mins North of the city centre & are absolutely beautiful. I would recommend swimming in nets though and always be CrocWise.

    Good video, There used to be a lot of fish around Green Island as depicted in your Mexican video about 20-30 years ago. It may also be seasonal and tide related as well. If you go to Kuranda you can get the train up via the waterfall and the sky rail back for about 100.00 Aud. Otherwise you can save some money buy getting the public bus up from the CBD for 7 bucks and the sky rail back down to Smithfield for 50 bucks, where you catch a public bus back to the CBD. P.s The turtles are mainly around Lady Musgrave Island off Bundaberg.

    I've always wanted to visit Cairns, as well as the Whitsunday Islands, both of which are in Northern Queensland. Cairns reminds me somewhat of Naples, Fla, except that Naples has nice beaches bordering the city. The weather looks ideal, and the Great Barrier Reef is obviously a must see. The weird thing for us North Americans about Australia is that it gets warmer and more tropical the further north you go. It seems counter-intuitive. Anyways, enjoy the rest of your stay down under and keep up the great work with the videos!

    Every thing is the opposite in the Southern Hemisphere. The further South you go it gets colder because the closer you get to Antartica. Fun fact you may or may not know: In the Northern Hemisphere--- water swirls down the drain in a counter-clockwise direction. In the Southern Hemisphere---water swirls down the drain clock-wise. Everything is backwards.

    Gabriel, if you spend more time in Sydney again this trip you should go to Shelly Beach in Manly if you want good snorkelling. Its a beautiful 10 minute walk along a sea wall from south end of Manly beach. Lots of different fish, stingrays, cuttlefish. Beautiful little beach with amenities and great view looking back towards Manly and more Northing beaches further in the distance.

    Great content as usual.. Re Brisbane (Brisvagas), you will hear about walking 'Southbank and Howard Smith Wharves'. Tip, these are much better enjoyed at night. Also there's great rainforest hiking with caves canyons and waterfalls around 'Springbrook' about an hours drive south. From there it's about another 30 min on to our famous Gold Coast beaches.

    Gabe, have you tried the enduro battery for the gopro, I just got the 11 and 3 enduro batteries and use the 9 for spare and multi views. I know you are not a fan of gopro but I like it. You know what they say about primacy 😅

    I believe Crocodile Dundee and Steve Irwin also enjoyed that particular spot Gabe was snorkeling at.
