Green Island and Cairns Aquarium

Are you ready for a day of aquatic adventure and exploration in the tropical paradise of Cairns, Australia? Our Green Island and Cairns Aquarium Tour Package perfectly blends natural beauty and underwater wonders. Let’s dive into the details of this unforgettable experience:

Green Island Adventure:  Morning or all-day 

Departure: Your day begins with an early departure from Cairns Marina. Board a comfortable catamaran and set sail towards Green Island, located within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.

Island Arrival: You’ll arrive at Green Island after a scenic cruise. Crystal-clear waters and vibrant coral reefs surround this idyllic coral cay.

Snorkeling: Don your snorkeling gear and explore the underwater world. Encounter colourful fish, coral gardens, and perhaps even sea turtles as you snorkel in the reef’s stunning marine ecosystem.

This Green Island and Cairns Aquarium package is an exceptional Great Barrier Reef experience. You will learn much about the Great Barrier Reef and its ecosystem in two days.

Starting with a day at Green Island, you will have the chance to see the corals and marine life of the reef before returning to Cairns.  Then, you will visit the Cairns Aquarium to marvel at many species you may not have seen on the island.

This Green Island and Cairns Aquarium tour package can be done in any order that suits you, and you do not need to do it in one day.

Green Island, Great Barrier Reef

White sandy beaches surround Green Island with lush tropical rainforests and Australia’s Great Barrier Reef!  What better way to get there and experience this than with the Green Island Reef Cruise?   On a glass-bottom boat tour or snorkel to see the fringing reef.  Or laze on the white, sandy beach.  Green Island offers various activities to suit all abilities and is ideal for non-swimmers.

Green Island is within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.

Relax On a Tropical Island

Stroll through a magical rainforest, laze on white coral sand beaches, swim, dive, or snorkel.
