CAIRNS AND SURROUNDINGS

Location Scouting

Cairns and the surrounding areas are perfect for underwater film and photography. The Great Barrier Reef has bright coral reefs and clear blue water, making it an amazing place to capture stunning underwater scenes. But it’s not just about the ocean—this region also has beautiful islands, white sand cays, lush rainforests, dense jungles, and even the wild outback.

We also help find hidden, private locations that make your project stand out. Plus, we have access to different boats, from sailing expedition vessels to high-tech research boats, so we can support any filming project, big or small. Whether you’re working on a commercial, tourism campaign, or documentary, Scubabo Cairns is ready to help bring your vision to life.

The Great Barrier Reef in Cairns, one of Australia’s most treasured natural wonders, draws over 2 million visitors each year eager to explore its vibrant coral gardens and marine life. But Australia’s underwater magic doesn’t end there.

Sara was the most incredible photographer for my 2 day trip on the reef and captured stunning pictures of my dives with fantastic angles and was super helpful transferring the pictures she took and the pictures I took on the GoPro I rented to my phone using a usc memory stick to preserve the quality.

The best underwater photographers on the reef! If you’re looking to get some truly epic, professional photos of your trip, definitely book to see the reef with one of the boats with Scubabo photographers! (Reef Encounter or Reef Experience) Kozel took incredible photos of our group and the reef, and edited them and we had them on our iPhones before departing the boat!
