Sail, relax, snorkel and dive! Ocean Spirit is a beautiful 32 metre (105ft) sailing catamaran that sets sail daily to Michaelmas Cay - a picturesque sand cay encircled by a spectacular fringing reef teeming with colourful marine life. It is also an important protected National Park and sanctuary for migratory birds.
Snorkel from the beach, cruise in the semi-sub for a diver’s view or for the more adventurous, there’s introductory scuba diving and a marine biologist snorkel tour. Or if you prefer just relax on the beach or onboard Ocean Spirit and enjoy a leisurely day on the Great Barrier Reef. On the homeward journey, enjoy a complimentary sparkling wine under the sails.

I was kept up to date with progress and how the day would be structured. The process on the day was seamless and stress free which is fantastic when taking care of a group. All of the administration and operational staff of Quicksilver that we dealt with were fantastic. It was one of the best team events we have done both from an ease of arrangements and an incredible experience point of view. Thanks very much to everyone involved."

It has been extremely important for our company to engage with suppliers that are not only reliable but maintain high standard of professionalism and delivery of their service. Quicksilver has never disappointed us.
Many of our delegates, as part of our Programs, have used these opportunities as a once in a lifetime experience to visit our world famous Reef. As such we are passionate that their experience lives up to everything they hope for. The Quicksilver team in both on land and on the water have always delivered what they promised. And this, always with professionalism, attention to detail, and cheerfulness from the pre-planning stage to the actual day.”
