Travel better in Great Barrier Reef with the right person

A travel companion means someone knows your plans, can help navigate emergencies, and makes you less of a target in unfamiliar areas of Great Barrier Reef.
Go deeper
The best experiences in Great Barrier Reef — the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot — are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.
Matched by style

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Respect Local Customs
Be mindful of local customs and traditions. Ask before photographing people. Learn basic greetings in the local language — even a simple hello earns goodwill.
Leave No Trace
Pack out all rubbish. Stay on marked trails and paths. Do not touch, feed, or disturb wildlife. The natural beauty of Great Barrier Reef depends on every visitor treating it with respect. Take only photos, leave only footprints.
