The dive sites are frequented by myriads of tropical and Palegic Fish, Rays, Turtles, (friendly) Sharks and the ever popular diver friendly Maori Wrasse.

This small group tour is a showcase of Australia’s unique wildlife in their natural habitat and seeing it this way makes it all the more engaging. One of the unique points of this tour is that it departs Cairns mid afternoon – you don’t need to be up at 7am to get on a great tour. The wildlife that you will see does not come out to play until after dark and you will be given a front row seat as your guide talks you through their life cycle and the part they play in this incredible eco system. You can expect to see Platypus on this tour, the Lumholtz Tree Kangaroo and other endemic wildlife to this part of the world. Dinner is included at Yungaburra on the Atherton Tablelands before returning back to Cairns around 9pm.

Visit the scenic Atherton Tablelands, rich in bio diversity, an area that features a range of habitats including lush tropical rainforest and volcanic crater lakes. Enjoy an Afternoon Tea at the world renowned, Lake Barrine. During our adventure by day we may see the Musky Rat Kangaroo, Boyds Forest Dragon, a selection of rainforest birds, butterflies and Flying Foxes. At dusk we venture to the viewing area by the river to search for the Platypus, one of the most unique mammals on earth.

After dinner at a local country restaurant, your night time spotlighting adventure begins. As you walk under the night stars, and into the World Heritage Rainforest, you may be lucky enough to spot a Lumholtzs Tree Kangaroo, Northern Leaf Tailed Gecko, Ringtail Possums, gliders, frogs, owls and more (most are endemic to the region). Every night is full of discoveries.
