For your adventure we recommend bringing:
Tour does not cover the glass-bottom boat experience or guided safari tours. However, you’re welcome to snorkel independently at your leisure in safe areas of your choice.
Additionally, pickups and drop-offs from Cairns accommodations are not included.
Enjoy the freedom to explore the island and its underwater wonders on your own terms.
Passengers no longer need to check in at The Reef Fleet Terminal. Guests traveling to Fitzroy Island can now check in directly at the vessel located at Finger A, Marlin Wharf.
The afternoon before their travel day, guests will receive an email and SMS outlining all necessary details, including a marina map indicating vessel locations and information on required proof of vaccination.
For your picnic lunch, you have the following options:
Dietary requirements such as vegetarian, celiac, gluten-free, or pork-free must be confirmed by calling 07 4030 7990 at least 24 hours before departure.
A $50 cash deposit is required for all rented snorkeling equipment on the day, refundable upon return of all gear.
Children under 16 years of age must travel with a guardian or parent.
Between November and May each year, the water may contain jellyfish stingers. We strongly recommend wearing a lycra suit during this period, available for hire.
Please note that some walks, including those to Nudey Beach, may involve steep terrain and are not suitable for wheelchairs or prams. Participants walk at their own risk. Our friendly island team can provide advice on the day.
We hope this information helps you prepare for your snorkeling Fitzroy Island Tour.
