Fish and turtle
Beautiful reef location, you will need reef shoes but the coral around is amazing, lots of fish and even saw a turtle!
Nice island lots to do! Suggest to walk to Nudy beach.
Very good and direct ride from Cairns to the island. Equipment can be rented on board (suggested!) and the island itself is enjoyable, nice little spots to dip in the water. And nice walk to Nudy beach, on the other hand not so sure that the walk to the gardens is worth it.
What you can expect
Come explore Fitzroy Island, a destination beloved by Cairns locals and visitors alike, where you’ll marvel at the rainforest-covered mountains as they slope down to the rocky headlands, the unspoilt coral beaches and the serene waters of the Great Barrier Reef. Comprised of 90% National Park land, this is as close to paradise as it gets.
After arriving at this impressive location by way of ferry, you can easily snorkel straight from the beach and discover incredible marine life and sea turtles, or simply bask in the tranquillity of the sandy shores of the famous Nudey Beach, which was voted the best beach in Australia. Another exciting way to explore the island's fascinating marine life is through our glass-bottom boat tours.
Whether you're out for adventure, a chance to take in the incredible scenery, or simply looking for a relaxing day with the family, you can customize your own adventure to Fitzroy Island.

Pure waste of money. Rude sunlover reef cruise crew. Just buy ferry pass and get your own snorkelling gear. Eat at the cafe.
The crew on the sunlover reef cruise weren't friendly. Missed the glass bottom tour by a minute. The fitzroy island tours person said we can try sort it when they come back. The crew came back for second trip but was a bit rude and didn't let us take the next ride because they apparently said no capacity. Even though there was enough space. Bad experience never going sunlover reef cruise again. Fitzroy island was beautiful. No refund was processed for missing the glassbottom tour. Strictly greedy.
