Green Island National Park, a pristine 12-hectare coral cay located 27 kilometres offshore from Cairns, is the most visited island national park within the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area and holds deep cultural significance to the Gungganyji Aboriginal peoples who call it Dabuukji. The island'\''s tropical vine forest supports over 60 bird species, while the surrounding coral reef teems with diverse marine life including corals, clams, stingrays, and fish, accessible via daily boat services from Cairns. Visitors can experience snorkelling, glass-bottom-boat tours, and rainforest walks on this iconic coral cay that has been protected since its national park proclamation in 1937.

The natural beauty of the beach to coral reef is stunning. The island has a unique smell due to the birds - who are quite cheeky. Resort staff obviously put alot of effort into cleaning boardwalk areas. Building exteriors and dock do look a bit rundown and in need of repair. Travelled with a 3 month old baby and it was grand, just pick your day for smooth travel

Beautiful little island off the cost of Cairns. Itβs located in the Great Barrier Reef and as such is a great spot for snorkeling although it can be very very crowded in the water! There is a beautiful walkway on the island which leads you to a a bit more βremoteβ area with fewer tourists which is definitely welcome. There you can sometimes find albatrosses resting. There are a few shops and kiosks where you can grab something to eat. The only downside is that there are a lot of tourist but as I was one my self I cannot really complain.

A great day trip in Cairns. Itβs nice to walk around an island. BYO food or there is a couple of places to eat. The glass bottom boat was nice. We did not ski a or snorkel but others did and had a good time and only need four 4-5 hours on the island

So glad we got to visit and stay in this place. Amazing swimming and snorkeling. Fish, and turtles π’ everywhere. Beautiful hikes around the island with a crocodile park in the middle. We spent 4 days here, but definitely could see it all in a day. Loved every minute here.
