Step 1
<p>Your ride begins at Elephant Beach, a short speedboat ride from Havelock Jetty. At the activity point, our friendly crew helps you wear your life jacket and board a small boat fitted with a clear glass panel in its floor. Once everyone is seated, the boatman slowly takes you out over the shallow coral reefs close to the beach. Look down through the glass and watch the amazing underwater world come alive, with colourful corals of different shapes and bright tropical fish swimming just below you. The boatman moves gently from one coral patch to another so you get the best views. Since you stay dry the whole time, it’s a relaxing way to enjoy the reef with your family. The ride lasts about 10 to 15 minutes before you return to the beach.</p>
