Lizard Island National Park

I have been to Lizard Island in quite a few ways now. By plane and staying at the resort and by ship (Coral Expeditions) staying on the boat and believe it is a true paradise. The reef around the island is stunning. There are a few good walks including the hike to Cooks Look where Captain Cook and his crew looked out over the reef to find a safe passage. Blue lagoon is a nice walk too. I would say that if you can get there it is well worth the expense and will be the trip of a lifetime no matter which way you do it.

Untouched wilderness: the island itself is interesting loads of wild life especially birds and lizards. Lots of walking tracks to explore. However the snorkeling is amazing. The best reefs are no more than 30 metres from the various benches. Millions of fish, clams and corals. Swim with the turtles and cute little reef sharks. An amazing experience. There is a resort but I hear it's pretty expensive. Camping is available. Various small airlines will fly you there from Cairns.

It's a lovely Island. I was only there for a couple of hours before flying back to Cairns after a dive trip to Osprey Reef with Mike Ball. Reefs are spectacular in this area.

Intriguing and beautiful place in the barrier reef. Nice bay and beach. Has an interesting history with clash of settlers and natives

Beautiful island. Lots of different bays to swim and snorkel
