Green Island is a superb coral cay with delightful sandy beaches and crystal clear waters on the Great Barrier Reef just 45 minutes from Cairns. This daytrip gives you just under 2 hours free time to explore this perfect piece of paradise.
After spending time on Green Island you will cruise on-board a modern comfortable high-speed catamaran to the first class multi-level pontoon situated on the outer edge at Norman Reef.

The diversity of the Marine life at the Outer Barrier Reef is amazing. We saw a huge number of beautiful small and very large tropical fish including a huge Maori Wrasse "Wally" who kept coming right up to us to say hello. It is the closest I have come to swimming in an aquarium. The Coral Gardens are very pretty and extensive.
As a dive site there were fabulous swim throughs and caves and a fantastic range of sea life.
If you want to learn more about the reef there is a Guided Snorkel tour that is very informative.
Optional Extras:
Scenic Helicopter Flights:
See the reef from below and above! You can fly to the reef or fly home by helicopter, or, do a quick Joy Flight while at the reef. There are many options and this is an absolute BUZZ! These are at an additional cost.
Scuba Doo:
This Outer Barrier Reef pontoon is the only place in Australia where you can cruise the reef in your own space-age underwater scooter. Tours depart every 25 minutes from the pontoon with professional guides. There are limited places so it is best to book early.
Hotel coach transfers from your Cairns accommodation or Cairns Beaches accommodation are available if required at an additional charge.
