Spend the day doing things your way at the amazing Fitzroy Island, with return ferry transfers. Explore the island, see the reef from a glass bottomed boat and use the fun beach equipment before enjoying a picnic lunch.

• Take the quick ferry, just a 45-minute journey to beautiful Fitzroy Island
• Indulge in a delicious picnic lunch ( dietary options available: vegetarian / vegan / celiac / gluten & pork free )
• Take a glass bottom boat tour over the reef
• Have full use of some exciting and fun beach equipment, including an ocean trampoline (seasonal) , paddle ski, paddle boards, stinger suits (seasonal) etc.

After checking in inside the Reef Fleet Terminal from 8.15am, you’ll hop aboard the Ferry and depart from A Finger at Cairns’ Marlin Marina at 9 am and head out into the beautiful blue ocean. With 45 minutes to relax on board and take in the views, you’ll be in the perfect holiday mood by the time you get to Fitzroy Island.

When you dock at the island, you’ll have the chance to look around, take in all the sights and amenities and get to know this amazing island. With use of all the beach hire equipment, you can try out the paddle skis and see if you can spot a turtle, try the coral viewing boards or feel like a kid again on the giant ocean trampoline (beach hire equipment is subject to availability). Then, as part of your tour package, you'll enjoy a glass bottom boat tour over the reef sourrounding the island. You’ll be left in awe of the stunning beauty hidden beneath the waves. The fringing reef of colourful soft and hard corals is the backdrop for a plethora of bright reef fish species and other fascinating marine species. You might even see sting rays, manta rays, non-dangerous reef sharks, starfish, sea cucumbers, turtles and so much more!

You’ll also indulge in a delicious and fresh picnic lunch that includes a cheese and ham roll, chicken and salad wrap, fresh seasonal fruit, an energy bar, a flavoured juice and bottle of water (dietary needs catered to – just let us know), and you can enjoy all this while surrounded in this wonderful tropical paradise. At the end of the day, you’ll again board the Ferry at 4.00pm and head back to Cairns, departing the island at 4.00pm and arriving at the Marlin Marina at 5.00 pm.
