Green Island

Travel Guide

Green Island, Cairns North Queensland on sunny day
I fell in love with Australia this day! I did not think I would see so many different shades of blue in 1 day😍

Stayed on green island at the Great Barrier Reef and spotted so many sea turtles just off shore :)
Green Island is one of the most accessible islands in the Great Barrier Reef, just a 40 minute boat ride from Cairns. You can do a day trip or stay overnight in the resort.

Green Island is great for snorkeling and other water sports like parasailing and windsurfing. There's also an eco-rainforest boardwalk and a croc sanctuary.

We cruised over with: http://www.greatadventures.com.au/
Want to spot a turtle? A trip to Green Island will pretty much guarantee you a sighting! Just don't expect the best coral for snorkelling, but that's a trade off if you can bag a selfie like this... #waterlust

The apartment has no elevator. We stayed at 3rd floor and was hard to carry heavy luggage to it. The AC is not cool at all. I don't recommend the 3rd floor living especially during the hot summer due to AC inefficiency.
