Facilities and Information


Green Island is a small coral cay, located right on Australia’s beautiful Great Barrier Reef, conveniently situated just 27 Kilometres east of Cairns.

Green Island National Park offers a delightful escape to white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters and magical rain forest - and it’s just 45 minutes from Cairns with Great Adventures modern high speed catamarans.

With 126 native plant species, colourful birdlife and surrounded by magnificent coral reef, Green Island is also home to Green Island Resort.

Green Island Resort represents one of the most environmentally sensitive tourist developments in the world, designed and built with extreme care to preserve the island’s delicate environment.

Here you’ll discover a luxurious haven cleverly secluded from the remainder of the island and day visitor facilities.
