Frankland Islands Reef: Boat Tour from Cairns
About this experience
Join a tour of the Great Barrier Reef that offers a later start and an earlier return. It's suitable for families with young children, cruise ship passengers, or those with a packed Cairns itinerary.
Visit Normanby Island with activities like kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, swimming, exploring the island, or relaxing on the beach. Choose one guided activity: a semi-submarine tour or a beach snorkelling tour.
Opt for an additional picnic lunch to make your trip more flexible and budget-friendly.

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.
