“ We went as a family of 6 and it was amazing. The kids loved the snorkeling and the glass-bottom boat ride. We saw so many colourful corals and fish. We even saw a 6-arm electric blue starfish. The Green Island tour was certainly the highlight of our Cairns trip.

Amazing coral reef experience. Glass bottom boat ride was the best. Saw all sorts of coral and fish.

Green Island Full Day Adventure & Discovery Full Dsy.

We purchased the Green Island Day Adventure tickets via Experience Oz, it was easy to purchase and at a great price. The experience was absolutely amazing, friendly staff on the boat to the island, and great staff at the island also. We went on the glass bottom boat which was spectacular. We also went snorkeling which was fantastic. Highly recommend this experience. We will be back again.

Family of 5, had the most amazing day, highly recommend it!

Highly recommend Experience Oz for a wonderful day spent on Green Island! Booking was incredibly easy, the whole process was well-communicated and our day was phenomenal! Our 2 daughters and I all got seasick and the staff were wonderful on the transfers over to the island. We toured Marineland Crocodile Park and were lucky enough to meet and speak with founder George Craig, a wonderful man who was keen to share his stories with our kids about his incredibly interesting life. Finishing out our day snorkelling, we had heard that the surrounding area would be disappointing and full of sea grass but just a couple of metres further was an abundance of beautiful corals and a stunning wild turtle! Definitely one of the best days of our holiday!

Best ever tour! Highly recommend to everyone wants to have a wonderful day.

I saw a huge sea turtle and so many fish. Compares to Great Barrier Reef tour, there is no motion sickness, and water is clear and shallow. I think It is best environment for family with kids. It was great to have this experience. I definitely recommend this tour to everyone.

Trip to Green Island snorkelling and checking out the reef from the glass bottom boat

This trip was magnificent, everything worked in our favour with the weather and the fact it was very calm. We snorkelled for hours seeing so many fish and sections of the reef. The only downfall was the lunch, it was very expensive and their was no healthy options but don’t let that deter you from going just pack a lunch to take.

Fantastic Green Island Adventure! Spent full day on Green Island. Exhausted but we had so much fun!

Don’t need to worry about boat sick as it is only 40 mins boat travel the Green Island. Enjoyed snorkeling to see the tropical fishes swimming beside us. Lucky enough to have seen a big turtle. Friendly staff on boat and on the island. Glass bottom boat adventure is also fantastic sight viewing experience.

Great experience for my first time on the Great Barrier Reef. I highly recommend the glass bottom boards!

It was my first time to the Great Barrier Reef and I really enjoyed it. The glass bottom boat was really more fun than I expected. I saw a lot of fish and was very lucky to see a sea turtle! The snorkelling was amazing and the whole day went by so fast. The boat was a bit bumpier than I expected, but it was an interesting experience all the same. Highly recommended!

Lovely day out on the island snorkelling and using the island pool.

It was really beautiful spending the day on the island. The staff were friendly and helpful however more information would have been good about the island features and more variety in food choices. Also more info about the stingers would have been good.

Snorkelling with so many fish and turtles was the most beautiful clear water.

Was an incredible experience, got to explore the island by yourself was very quiet and lovely food and drinks, I loved snorkelling and swimming, they also offered stinger suits in case we might need, beautiful chairs and umbrellas on the beach to sit and relax.
