Cairns Green Island Snorkeling & Glass Bottom Boat Tour

Take a high-speed catamaran from Cairns
to a 6,000-year-old coral cay

Board an air-conditioned high-speed catamaran at Cairns Reef Fleet Terminal and head to Green Island on the Great Barrier Reef. The trip takes about 45 minutes each way, and morning tea and coffee are served on board before departure.

Choose your departure from Cairns (8:30 AM or 10:30 AM) and from Green Island (2:30 PM or 4:30 PM) as your option, and enjoy up to 7 hours of free time on the island.

Explore the reef on a glass bottom boat

Green Island is a tropical island with more than 120 native plant species, birds, coral gardens and abundant marine life. Join the coral viewing tour on a glass bottom boat to see beautiful coral and marine life without getting in the water.

Snorkel right off the white sandy beach

Put on your hired snorkel equipment, step into the sea right in front of the white sandy beach and swim among the coral gardens. If you're lucky, you may meet turtles, rays and clownfish (Nemo).

Fill your day with rainforest walks and the island pool

Explore the island's lush rainforest at your own pace along the walking trails, or join the reef talk and island walk with a marine biologist (exclusive to Great Adventures guests). You can also swim in the island pool (exclusive to Great Adventures guests) and enjoy refreshments at the pool bar.

The island has a dive shop, restaurants and eateries where you can buy lunch, snacks and refreshments. Optional activities such as scuba diving, an offshore boat snorkel tour, Seawalker helmet diving, canoeing and helicopter flights are available at an extra cost.

※ Turtles and other wildlife live in their natural habitat, so sightings are not guaranteed.
※ Activities may be adjusted depending on sea conditions or visibility, and departures may be delayed or canceled if safety cannot be ensured.
