Big Cat Cruises - Green Island Cruise Cairns
Situated
27 kilometers off the coast from Cairns, Green
Island is a protected National Park and is one of the most popular
Islands visited by thousands each year.
Green Island has a resort with
shops, change rooms and toilets that guests and day visitors may use,
with cafe and dining facilities.
This fun day begins with an enjoyable cruise aboard the catamaran Big
Cat from Cairns
jetty to Green Island, that takes about 40 minutes.
A snorkeling
demonstration is presented onboard during your cruise to Green Island
and snorkeling gear provided for those wishing to take the opportunity
to participate in this underwater adventure.
The fringing reef at Green Island is one of the best places to see an abundance of fish, turtles, giant clams and a wide range of coral formations. A really fantastic experience just a short way off the beach.
If you don't do anything else, do yourself a favor and go snorkeling at Green island. You could swim with turtles, which is an experience you will never forget.
For those not so adventurous, there are many other enjoyable activities
such as glass
bottom boat tours, semi submarine coral viewing tour, nature walks
on the specially constructed boardwalks around the island, or just soaking
up the sun on this idyllic paradise.
The resort hire shop has canoes,
surf skis, sailboards and other beach stuff that you can hire and enjoy.
There are various Big Cat cruise packages with hotel pickup, buffet
lunch and fabulous fun filled activity options, with prices starting
around $75.00 pp for a full day Cairns Green Island Cruise.
