Green Island is a beautiful 12-hectare coral Cay on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. It's uniquely rainforested and surrounded by white sandy beaches and magnificent coral reefs, plus it boasts an abundance of marine life. Turtles are regularly sighted from the shore, and the island is home to 35 species of seabirds. Your visit allows you 2 hours at Green Island, and you can take part in the many activities available or simply relax on the beach. Depart Green Island at noon, returning to Cairns in time for collection in front of the Reef Fleet Terminal at 1:00 pm for your afternoon city sights tour. Once you disembark the boat from Green Island, you'll be picked up by your guide. Start with a visit to St. Monica's Cathedral. Join an exclusive tour with a dedicated museum guide to discover the Cairns Museum. Now it's time for a break and the opportunity to indulge in a delicious Devonshire Tea at Noa's Café in the leafy suburb of Edge Hill. Once afternoon tea is done, stretch your legs with a wander through the Flecker Gardens in Cairns Botanic Gardens. Then, have your camera at the ready as you visit a spectacular lookout with views over the city of Cairns and the Coral Sea before continuing to Lower Barron River Gorge National Park and Surprise Creek Falls. Finally, the tour heads further north to Palm Cove. Take a stroll along the jetty or beach of this picture-perfect location, fringed with coconut trees.
