My wife and me are planning our first trip to Australia. I am in the process of doing lots of research. We are currently planning on about a 14-day trip and plan to visit: Sydney, Brisbane, & Cairns. Of course we will be diving since I am posting on scubaboard for info. . I understand that the Great Barrier Reef stretches north-south off the Northeast tip of Australia. It looks like Cairns would be the most ideal location to take a dive charter out of. I have read that some of the reefs are pretty far out and many operators offer overnight trips. That looks like it would be the most fun. Please share your knowledge and experiences.
A couple questions???
Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced quality boat operator?
What will the water temp be in late Jan-Feb?
What kind of conditions could we expect? Visibility, currents, ect.
Are the rainforests worth a look?
Should we take a day to go to the outback?
Please share ANY experiences that you have had traveling to Australia. Thanks!
