Green Island was amazing and a fantastic day out for the whole family. The kids absolutely loved it, and we were surprised by just how much there was to see and do throughout the day. There was plenty to keep everyone entertained, while still having time to relax and enjoy the beautiful island. The cruise was easy and enjoyable, and the whole experience was definitely one of the highlights of our Cairns trip. Highly recommend it for families!

We had a wonderful experience with Big Cat Cruises to Green Island from Cairns. The cruise was comfortable, well organised, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout the journey. The glass-bottom boat tour was a highlight for our family. We loved seeing the beautiful coral, colourful fish, and marine life without needing to snorkel. Green Island itself was beautiful and perfect for a relaxing family day out. A fantastic experience and highly recommended for families visiting Cairns. Thank you Big Cat Cruises for making our day so memorable! 🐠🌴

Victor was knowledgeable, pleasant and very organised. He was courteous and thorough. A great asset to this business. The day was relaxed, unrushed and extremely enjoyable. I recommend the day trip to all ages.

We had a great day trip to Green Island. Staff on the boat were very helpful. Glass bottom boat trip was informative. Snorkeling was lots of fun.

The cruise was exceptionally organised, the staff were entertaining and helpful, the boat was lovely and the food at lunchtime was really tasty and fresh. Although there were 150 people on the trip everything was well planned and flowed easily. Would def recommend worth every cent 👍👍

What a fabulous experience. Loved the reef, staff were very accomodating, and the tour came with a glass bottom boat, and semi-submersible experience. Food was below par though, nowhere near enough variety for a buffet and ran out quickly. Was disappointed with the food. But everything else was terrific!

The trip there and back , the island was disappointing to me , glass bottom boat was a waste of time and money as the tide was middle going out and as the water cloudy you could not see anything, I know you can't do anything about the weather and tides but needs more thought compared to green island it was , to me anyway , disappointing.
