Great day out

Published on Feb, 2024

We left Cairns in a tropical downpour. We left the clouds behind us and were greeted with sun and a turtle as we walked to the island. The snorkelling was easy to access, there were many beautiful beaches to sit on and there was everything you needed accessible in the resort

Easy to enjoy close Great Barrier Reef Island

Published on Dec, 2020

A great full day cruise, with catamaran return transfer direct from Cairns marina. Easy booking service, checkin and launch. Although the onboard boat staff appear busy, your needs are met. The tour included a glass bottom boat tour of the surrounding reef, showing huge tropical fish, live coral, large clams, turtles, reef sharks and marine life. We took our own snorkel equipment and stinger suits, the on-site life guard was very helpful, informative and friendly. This way, you can enjoy and experience everything the island has to offer. The island team are great, providing exceptional professional service. You can snorkel directly from shore and will instantly see huge tropical fish, memo and turtles. The resort had great amenities, and will make a perfect mid year tropical island getaway. As the island is teaming with birds, you’re greated at the jetty with bird life, the rooms and accommodation is further away and relaxing. The crocodile enclosures and show is fabulous, the family team are passionate and love their crocodiles as their treasured family. The passion for the crocodiles is high and genuine. Well worth the small entry fee. The kids and adults alike loved the personalised crocodile feeding tour. The natural rainforest on the island is in pristine condition and easy to walk along the timber boardwalks. This is a great way to easily experiencing and enjoy Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, without seasickness and hassle. The scenic Green Island is surrounded by Cairns city and nearby mountains and islands. A great day trip and holiday destination.

Snuba one of a kind

Published on Oct, 2020

Was an amazing experience out to green island, snorkelling around looking at all different kind of fish. The best part of the day was when we went out to snuba diving with benny the instructor, it was the most wonderful experience ever. When we got to the bottom we had the opportunity to feed the fish that was around us with the specialised fish food which was just an awesome experience. A big thanks to benny for making my fiancé and my first time snuba experience so unbelievable. Benny was so knowledgeable and helpful i would recommend it to anyone who wants to try out something amazing.

Huge croc

Published on Jul, 2020

Cumfy boat, only 75mins to island. Crocs are huuuge and amazing (not in the ocean) at the croc park. Swam with a turtle.

Great day seeing the Great Barrier Reef

Published on Mar, 2020

Unbelievable day with Great Adventures. My fiancé and I got the Discovery package which include a boat to Green Island, a glass bottom boat ride, snorkel equipment, and use of the pool on the island. Couldn’t have imagined a better day on the island. Seeing the GBR was an incredible experience through them. Highly recommend.
