Fitzroy Island is part of the Great Barrier Reef and is a beautiful, unspoiled tropical island where the beaches are not crowded.

Relax and unwind on a stunning tropical island

The day is yours to savor at your leisure. You can start by exploring the rainforest walking track up to the summit, where you’ll enjoy breathtaking views extending all the way to the outer Great Barrier Reef. Additionally, there are other picturesque paths that will lead you to enchanting spots such as the Secret Garden and Nudey Beach – renowned as Australia’s most beautiful beach!

This destination is also ideal for families with children, as they have the opportunity to learn how to snorkel right from the beach, immersing themselves in the crystal-clear waters. While snorkeling, you can discover the vibrant coral gardens teeming with abundant marine life, including many graceful sea turtles.

Take the kids on a tour to the Turtle Rehabilitation Centre. You will have the opportunity to see these magnificent animals up close before they will be released back into the wild.

Relax and unwind at Foxy’s bar with a cool drink and a delicious lunch. The views from Foxy’s are absolutely breathtaking.

Only a 45-minute cruise from Cairns (North Queensland) along the coastline aboard an air-conditioned catamaran, Fitzroy Island is yours to discover.
