You might prefer to explore the Great Barrier Reef on a liveaboard adventure out of Cairns, taking in Ribbon Reefs and the famed grouper population at Cod Hole and, in the Coral Sea (pictured), encounters with sharks, possibly including hammerheads, and drop-offs down to 1000m.
The final day could be spent on Bougainville Reef with its caves, canyons and Antonio Tarabocchia wreck.
This trip costs from £2275 pp for seven nights’ full-board liveaboard accommodation, 26 dives and transfers from Cairns. International flights are extra for this holiday.
