Seawalker

Imagine an underwater experience the whole family (children 12 years and over) can enjoy together. Now imagine an underwater experience where your face stays dry and you can easily interact with family and friends as you walk along the sea floor. Well that experience is Seawalker. An Underwater Walking adventure designed for anyone looking for an underwater experience that gives them the Great Barrier Reef up close and personal.

How it all begins...

• You meet our Seawalker representatives aboard the catamaran or at the Seawalker Counter in the Green Island Dive Centre.
• After a simple and informative briefing on this unique experience you are transferred from the beach aboard our shuttle boat to the Seawalker Australia Diving Support Vessel anchored only 3 minutes offshore from Green Island.

Under the water you go...

• One of the great advantages of the Seawalker Helmet is that for those who wear glasses or contact lenses, you can wear them on your Seawalker adventure as your face stays dry.
• Waiting at the top of the ladder, you are given a few words of encouragement by the friendly staff and the Seawalker helmet is placed onto your shoulders.
• For children or adults with a smaller build, a collar is placed on their shoulders first to provide a more comfortable fit.
• With a Seawalker Guide by your side, you climb down the ladder and start your underwater adventure.

On the sea floor...

• After descending about 4-5 metres you are accompanied by your Seawalker Guides on your first steps underwater.
• Walking on the sea floor brings you up close and personal with some of the animals that makes the Great Barrier Reef so special.
• The Seawalker Diving Support Vessel anchors close to coral reef. Here you can enjoy the amazing shapes and colours of the coral and reef animals.
• After 15-20 minutes which will leave you with some wonderful memories, you are climbing the ladder back to the surface and your quick return to the island beach.
