A Top Day!

We had a smooth trip with smiling attentive crew to a magical place! Green Island offers day trippers so much! Food, swimming pool, and a patrolled sandy beach as well as a variety of snorkeling experiences. Not to mention the beautiful turtles ❤️

Amazing experience

Me and my husband had such an amazing day trip. The Crew was 100% available for us. The fact they lend us the stinger suit cause now is jellyfish season made me feel very safe. The boat is very comfortable and the air con very refreshing. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great day at Green Island. We saw so many fishes and turtles, was just perfect

Check the tides

If visiting Green Island to snorkel or swim check the tide times. At low tide you can’t really swim on the sandy beach but it’s easier to swim out to the coral by the wharf. At a higher tide it’s a long and when we visited quite a choppy swim out to the coral by the wharf but the snorkelling off the beach was fine. We saw turtles and a reef shark. The boat trip was smooth and pleasant. We would visit again but would check for a better tide time next time.
