Quicksilver Outer Barrier Reef

Agincourt Reef

Travel by wavepiercer to the edge of Australia's Continental Shelf with this iconic reef experience! Your Quicksilver journey takes you to a spacious activity platform at the renowned Agincourt Reef, a jewel-like ribbon reef showcasing spectacular coral formations, colourful marine life and exceptional underwater visibility.

There's something for everyone, swimmers and non-swimmers alike. Choose to dive and snorkel or stay dry and observe. Cruise in the semi-sub and be mesmerised from the underwater observatory as colourful fish dart and play in beautiful coral gardens. There's introductory and certified diving, helmet diving, marine biologist snorkel tours and for a totally different perspective, scenic helicopter flights too.
