Itinerary
Friday - Your first port of call is Green
Island where you can join the Marine Naturalist for an escorted
walk, board a glass bottom boat tour or relax with a cocktail
at the resort pool.
Saturday
- Snorkellers come face to face with clouds of intensely
coloured reef fish. Passengers in the glass-bottomed boat
hear our marine naturalist describe life among the coral
bomboras of Hedley Reef. A whole day to explore these coral
gardens.
Sunday
- A breathtaking cruising passage through the Hinchinbrook
Channel. Enjoy
the spectacular vista of densely forested
mountains, mangroves and sun-drenched beaches in the morning
mist. Our marine naturalist explains the channel’s
diverse habitats that shelter species from dugongs and dolphins
to migrating whales. In the high rainforest canopies of Dunk
Island exotic bird and plant life abounds. There is life
too at the island’s resort where you can drop in for
a quiet drink, a hit of tennis, a round of golf or a swim.
On Monday morning we reach Cairns once more.
