Enjoy your experience! ----- The quickest and most effective way to get to beautiful Fitzroy Island is by ferry transfers from Cairns. This tour departs from Cairns Marina, where you'll board a comfortable vessel and cruise across the pristine reef waters. The cruise will travel towards the shores of Fitzroy Island on a journey that takes roughly 45 minutes. Once on Fitzroy Island, you have up to 2 hours to explore its natural offerings. You have the option to take part in a range of activities on both land and water including snorkelling, glass-bottom boat tours, kayaking, island adventures, and more for an additional cost. Unlike smaller coral cays or sandy islands on the Great Barrier Reef, Fitzroy was once part of mainland Australia. The island is largely untouched and protected as Fitzroy Island National Park, with walking tracks through the rainforest, heathland, and open forest to the Summit and Nudey Beach (one of the best beaches in Australia). The tour departs at 11am and offers a half day of fun at one of Cairns' most popular and accessible Great Barrier Reef islands.
