Walk, Sail and Snorkel: Great Barrier Reef & Green Island Tour from Cairns
About this experience
This is your all-in-one Great Barrier Reef and tropical island experience! Snorkel around an exclusive mooring on Pinnacle Reef, where the coral outcrops – known locally as “bommies” – can be seen just one metre below the surface. If you're a qualified diver, opt to scuba dive instead.
On the deck, there's a delicious lunch of tropical goodies to fill your rumbling tummy. After lunch, hop into the tender to transfer to Green Island. Take a walk through some of Australia's most lush tropical rainforests. Visit Marineland Melanesia, home to Cassius, the largest crocodile in captivity. Laze around on the beautiful white sands and take a cooling dip in the shallow waters off Green Island Beach. With 4.5 hours in total (including lunch), you'll have lots of time to snorkel in the exclusive reef and explore or relax on the island.
On the peaceful sail home, indulge in platters of tropical fruit, cakes, cheeses, and crackers, and a glass of champagne to end your day.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
