Barrier Reef

Don't miss the opportunity to see why the complex, intricate and extraordinary Great Barrier Reef is lauded as one of the world's most magnificent diving locations. View delicate soft corals or iridescent fish through a wide array of learn-to-dive courses or extended trips for experienced divers. Snorkelling offers a wonderful way to see this amazing biosphere and most reef tours include transfers and lunch. You don't even have to get your feet wet when you view the reef by semi-submersible craft, from an underwater observatory or from the air with a helicopter scenic flight. Cairns and Port Douglas are cruising bases, so you can choose a cruise to fit your requirements. Whether you spend a day or a week on the reef, dive to your heart's content and explore this unique natural wonder.

You'll know you're in paradise when you see the range of idyllic islands scattered off the coast of Tropical North Queensland. Each island has its own personality. Emerald rainforest jewels, large natural islands made for exploration, sophisticated romantic retreats and secluded coral atolls. Lizard Island has drawn international attention and garnered major awards for its stylish resort. Find total privacy at Bedarra Island, its first-class facilities have hosted royalty. Close to Cairns, Green Island is a picturesque tropical coral cay harbouring reef gardens while Fitzroy Island's fringing reefs are popular with snorkellers. Try to glimpse the turquoise Ulyssess butterfly on Dunk Island, an idyllic rainforest isle. Other islands include Hinchinbrook, the world's largest island national park and home to the famous Thorsborne walking trail; and Orpheus, the region's most southern island. For something different, try camping on a deserted national park island such as the Frankland Group.
