not worth it. the trip is about 45 minutes one way. once you get there, you either do the glassboat, or snorkel with provided equipment. glassboat (wife) - only 30 minutes, some fish and some coral, but too short, and a lot of the reef is dead. snorkel - the swimming beach about 100m offshore has little areas of live reef. you got to swim quite a bit to locate those areas - which are nice but few. so this was ok, but not more. overall, this is not worth 110aud pp that we paid. maybe Fitzroy Island, but we didn't visit there.

Really nice experience, did a tour with a marine biologist. very friendly and knowledgeable. helped us when we missed our glass bottom tour. got us on the next one instead. they show presentations of history of the island and what to expect and also offer several options of things you can do on the island when you are there. Although it was jellyfish season (trip was in 2nd of March) with the body suits we had no trouble. but the current brought some jellyfish and led to other fish swimming away from our diving spot so maybe go at a better season lol.

Big Dissapointment No Fish. The ferry ride was 50 minutes.I snorkled off the coast of the island but did not see but 1 fish. Very dissappointing. The glass bottom boat was not that good eithher. Spend your money on something else.

The tour company is fine. Nice boat and so on. The problem is the reef conditions are very poor due to coral bleaching which is a worldwide issue. See the reef while you can because it will only get worse. Thought the underwater safari option would provide better quality reef since it is in deeper water with no foot stomping tourists, but it was the same. But I did see a turtle.

Itinerary was well planned. We had a great time under the green island canopy. Went on glass bottom boat and semi submarine. With the bright sun light and clear water the underwater experience was amazing. Food was great at the buffet in big cat vessel.

We loved it all, family of 5 with two teens and a four year old. The staff on the island are all so lovely and helpful. Facilities are great, plenty of toilets and drinks/ snacks. Snorkeling from the beach we saw loads of fish, sting rays and a baby shark. Some coral was also seen. Water is so clear and warm, suits are provided in case of jelly fish but we didn’t see any the whole time we were there. Glass bottom boat tour was fantastic for our youngest daughter who could quite get the snorkeling thing. We saw turtles and so many fish. The boat guide was super friendly. We also took the plunge and did scuba dive (first timers) it was absolutely stunning, our instructors Eason and Emma are so professional and attentive I couldn’t recommend them more highly they are so passionate and we all felt so safe in their hands. We even spotted a turtle and their photographer got photos of us with the turtle. Memories to last a lifetime. Could easily spend more than a day here would love to come back and stay on the island next time.

We travelled in January with 2 teenagers and snorkelled on the reef while not as good as quicksilver from port Douglas it was priced accordingly. Having a nice stable base on the island was great, toilets, showers, cafes and even a swimming pool. Stinger suits were a must as in Jan as lots of stingers around we snorkelled out as far as you could but had most rewards int he shallows with 3 separate turtles. Even saw turtles from the jetty. All up a great day out.

Good visit to Green Island. We booked the bus pick up and drop service from Palm Cove which was air-conditioned, on time, with barely any passengers and a lovely driver. Drop off in the morning was right at the jetty that had a cafe conveniently located. The boat is air-conditioned with an upper deck.Seating with tables is across both levels and there is complimentary tea/coffee at the start.Please don't forget to have Travacalm for motion sickness. There is fish feeding around 3.30 from the boat.We saw many Trevally and a shark then. Lunch was a buffet which can definitely improve in taste.Desserts and drinks can be purchased on the boat. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and lovely on tour as well as on the boat. We did the glass boat which was so good, saw a manta ray, turtle and many other fishes and coral.The smaller tour boat was breezy with lovely staff.The submersible on the other hand was a dreadful experience which made us feel sick to an extent.Cramped up with very little ventilation.Staff were good. Both tours last for half hour each. Green Island very little to do except take a walk around the scenic beach or the rainforest but beautiful nonetheless.Of course you can snorkel on your own with stinger suits and hire equipment at the boat. There is a good museum there with tribal art, where we saw a crocodile and turtle show at 1.20 pm for 28 dollars each.You can buy merch there too. We never ate at the island.

Catamaran ride fine. Visibly of coral reef through glass/plexiglass bottom boat was poor. Tour guide was great. No tour guide included in cost of excursion. Etc.

Whilst the views were amazing yes, The island smelled of rotting plants/fish whilst on the board walk and there wasn't nearly enough seating on hot busy days. We headed down to the beach and found it in rough shape sticks everywhere, feathers covered in bird Poop and the beach smelled of dead birds/bird Poop. The best thing of the trip was the glass boat tour and the semi Submarine although the semi Submarine glass does need cleaning it was a bit hard to see through the algae. We probably won't be back to Green Island and that's such a shame because when we came in 2016 it was much nicer.

I had a wonderful day out that included snorkeling, the glass bottom boat tour, and I walked around Green Island which is just gorgeous. In particular my snorkeling guide, Daneka, was amazing. I was very unsure of my ability to cope in the ocean which she spotted immediately. Daneka then gave me a very special snorkeling experience that suited my ability much better. Because of her, I have very special memories of my day on the Reef, I saw more than I ever imagined I could. She also followed up with me and my husband later in the day to see how we were doing and make sure we continued to have a wonderful day. Thank you so much Daneka.

Our tour was on a beautiful day so nature made the reef spectacular. This tour felt like we were being nickel and dimed all day. You have to choose either snorkel equipment or a 30 minute glass bottom boat tour. If you choose the glass bottom boat you then have a lot of day left with little to do. This is where they now charge you for snorkel equipment. This tour needs to be set up differently - every passenger should have the snorkel equipment included as well as the short glass bottom boat ride to introduce you to what to look for while you’re snorkeling. If they did this the day wouldn’t feel like a “cruise ship” type outing. It didn’t feel like there was anything above and beyond with this tour

This experience was great in that you could do so much on your own. There is actually ample snorkel space right off the island, you can walk / swim in from shore and can spend as long as you want snorkeling. It was the first time I didn't feel rushed snorkeling! The boat was excellent. It was quite crowded which was annoying, but there were many areas and levels to sit. There was AC which was nice. The buffet lunch was great. The complimentary coffee, tea, and water was also excellent. Loved that the boat docked all day so we could go back and forth and enter it and leave it as we wanted. Loved that there was the resort we could use with showers and changing stations. We did think that we paid for snorkeling as that was in our charges; however I guess that was just the cost of the snorkel gear - all we needed was the Lycra suit, but we ended up paying the same amount as full gear. It was an additional I think 70-100$ if you wanted to go on an actual snorkel expedition off the island.

We saw a lot of big and colorful fish, turtles munching on the reef grass, a black tipped reef shark and several stingrays. A great day.

The crew were terrific but the prices on board were exhortion. The meal provided, as part of the ticket price, is delicious. My partner & I have Gluten free & they went all out to give us a delicious meal. It’s a trip that you need to do but if you’re on a budget take stuff with you
