About Green Island
Green Island is a coral cay formed over thousands of years by building sand and coral rubble. The island is a unique rainforest environment covered in tropical forests and, as a result, supports an array of birds and insects.
The surrounding coral reef is home to many kinds of corals, clams, fish, and stingrays. Consequently, it is a popular area for Green Sea Turtles and the Hawksbill turtle, so you may be lucky enough to see one while snorkelling.
Guru-Gula Gungandji is the indigenous people of this island and surrounding reefs. To them, Green Island is known as Wunyami.
Where is Green Island?
Green Island is only 27km northeast of Cairns and approximately 45 minutes by boat. It is a National Park and home to over 120 native plant species and birdlife. Coral Gardens and marine life are abundant and waiting for you to explore.
