All Great Adventures Green Island tours include return transfers from Cairns to Green Island, aboard their fast, air-conditioned catamarans, tea and coffee and a choice of a glass-bottom boat tour or snorkelling equipment. Snorkelling can be done from the beach and we’ve got some tips on the best Green Island snorkelling locations.
Why choose Green Island for your half-day tour? Apart from the fact it’s so flexible, Green Island is a great half-day destination. At just 12 hectares this small sand cay island can easily be explored in a tight timeframe. Take in its sandy beaches with offshore fringing reef and seagrass beds and wander the rainforest boardwalks with interpretive signage.

Remember to try any form of scuba diving everyone needs to be medically fit with no asthma and not be taking any prescription medication. PADI recommends allowing up to 24 hours after diving before flying in an airplane. Some tour operators have a no refund policy for any dives not completed for whatever reason. Please note the art of freediving is not permitted on any of the day boats or liveaboard dive boats from Cairns & Port Douglas. With the high instances of (shallow water blackout) companies do not allow this for safety reasons.
Do you have Medical Issues:
Please note if you have any medical issues you will need to go see your local GP where you live and get them to write you a letter on the practice letterhead signed and dated by your doctor that you are “Fit to dive” If you have one of these letters then all dive companies in Cairns will take you diving. Please note these letters are only valid for three months from their date of issue.
Inclusions: Tea & coffee served on the boat until departure from Cairns, choice of a glass-bottom boat tour or use of snorkeling equipment, use of resort’s exclusive swimming pool and self-guided island eco walks.
