The perfect one word answer, Margo_oz.
Australia is BIG and Melbourne is at the equivalent position of about New Orleans and Cairns is up past the Great Lakes in Canada.
Anyway we did a Quiksilver tour out of Port Douglas to the Agincourt Reef which was spectacular overall. Snorkelling was good but I would recommend being a reasonable swimmer. You are out in the open ocean in a roped off area and they take safety very seriously but I was a little unnerved by the huge ocean. I really enjoyed it but no way would I take any risks by swimming too far away.
The helicopter tour is awesome. Wait until later in the day and you might get it for half price.
