Fitzroy Island, on the Great Barrier Reef, is a stunning rainforest covered island only 45 minutes from Cairns. Our ferry departs from the Reef Fleet Terminal at 8.30am each morning, and travels along the scenic coastline before arriving in the calm waters of Welcome Bay.
There is an abundance of activities available including snorkelling, rainforest walks, glass bottom boat tours, paddle ski hire, a floating ocean trampoline and half day guided sea kayaking tours. As Fitzroy Island is almost completely surrounded by fringing coral reef, you can snorkel straight from the beach without having to swim out into the open water. There are a range of walking tracks suitable for all levels of fitness.
A short 15 minute walk will lead you to picturesque Nudey Beach for a refreshing dip, or be rewarded with spectacular views from the Lighthouse and Summit tracks. As our ferry departs Fitzroy Island at 4.30pm, you will have plenty of time to do as much, or as little, as you wish!
