What to expect
You'll board a rapid catamaran in Cairns with complimentary tea and coffee before heading out to Green Island. Once there, pick your aquatic activity: strap on snorkelling gear to explore the reef yourself, or settle into a glass-bottomed vessel to watch coral without getting wet. Between water time, wander the island's marked trails to spot tropical plants, take a dip in the pool, and browse the shops. The facilities are well-maintained with a bar and restaurant serving meals and snacks throughout the day. Snorkelling can be physically demanding, so flag any health concerns to crew beforehand.
Good to know
Three departure times mean flexible scheduling around other plans. Hotel transfers aren't included—arrange separately or drive to the Cairns terminal. Fuel surcharges may apply. Bring reef-safe sunscreen. Strollers work fine for infants; specialised seats are available onboard.
