Green Island, Cairns North Queensland on sunny day
I fell in love with Australia this day! I did not think I would see so many different shades of blue in 1 day😍 #LifeAtExpedia
Stayed on green island at the Great Barrier Reef and spotted so many sea turtles just off shore :)
Green Island is one of the most accessible islands in the Great Barrier Reef, just a 40 minute boat ride from Cairns. You can do a day trip or stay overnight in the resort. Green Island is great for snorkeling and other water sports like parasailing and windsurfing. There's also an eco-rainforest boardwalk and a croc sanctuary.
