Cairns Schnorcheln

Fitzroy island was beautiful! Very scenic & tranquil. The tickets to the ferry were easy to use, with straightforward instructions sent to your email 3-4 days before your actual departure date. Do however note that facilities at Fitzroy Island are limited… Only 3 toilets next to Foxy’s Cafe and visitors aren’t allowed to use the area at Fitzroy Island Resort… Remember to bring along sunblock and picnic mats!! If you’re able to snorkel, little fishes can always be spotted near the shoreline.

Dieses Mal wurden wir zu den äußeren Riffen Milln Reef und Flynn Reef gebracht und sahen sogar Wale und Delfine. Die äußeren Riffe sind viel schöner als die inneren Riffe, aber man muss zuerst zwei Stunden starken Wellengang ertragen, um dorthin zu gelangen. Es lohnt sich jedoch sehr. Es wird dringend empfohlen, vorher eine Reisetablette einzunehmen, um Enttäuschungen zu vermeiden.

this is a great trip. it’s very relaxed and when you reach the island you have the freedom to do what you want in terms of paddle boarding, kayaking, snorkelling, etc. it was pretty cold and rained a lot but still managed to do a fair bit. just relaxing on the beach was not something to enjoy. the boat ride, the crew, the croc spotting was all great. Andy’s knowledge and enthusiasm of all things reef was an honour to be a part of. morning tea and cake was a nice pick me up. lunch was lovely. there was no afternoon tea but all too full from lunch to miss it.
