We went on a Fitzroy island tour with Sunlover Reef Cruise.
What I loved about this tour was the time duration on Fitzroy Island. You get to experience Fitzroy island more than enough in a day!
We went on a hike, went to the Nudey beach, snorkelling around & spent a day on Nudey Beach exploring!
While we were waiting for the boat to go back to Cairns, we spotted some sea turtles on the jetty.
Boat came around 5pm and we could enjoy the pre sunset sky at Fitzroy island which was absolutely beautiful ✨
All the staff I have spoken to on the boat, they were all friendly and professional.
I highly recommend to book Fitzroy island tour with Sunlover Reef Cruise! It was definitely worth the money.

I'm glad I chose Fitzroy Island out of all the islands there are☺️
The staff on the cruise ship were very friendly and kind, and I was able to cross to the island with peace of mind!
As soon as I arrived, I climbed the mountain for about 15 minutes and was greeted by a magnificent view of Australia, which gave me a sense of exhilaration I'd never felt before✨
I spent the afternoon relaxing on the beach, listening to music, sleeping, swimming, and having a wonderful holiday!
The island is very clean with almost no trash, and it soothes the hearts of those who visit♡It's highly recommended for relieving your daily fatigue♪

Great experience! All was on time, great professional and funny staff. :) made a best out of experience even if it was rainy a bit. Just make sure, you eat light breakfast as it can be pretty wavy on board

The glass boat tour guide was funny and had away to get everyone smiling.
Overall, very much enjoyed the day trip to Fitzroy Island.

Only used this as a ferry service. We did not opt in to the glass bottom boat or snorkeling. Island is beautiful and offers pretty snorkeling. Nudey beach was a tough treak to make but not too. Wear proper hiking gear and study the path as much as possible and don't be afraid to get directions as it can be confusing. Food places are minimal and close in the afternoon so be ware of timings before heading out.

Great service and very reasonably priced.
My friend and I had the best day out on Fitzroy island, there was so much to do and it was very surreal and beautiful to be surrounded by such nature and sights!!

My husband and I took a day trip from Cairns to Fitzroy Island. Professional, helpful staff on the Fitzroy Island boat, and everything ran to schedule. Beautiful scenery as we walked/hiked to Nudey Beach, which was well worth the trek. The trip included the option of a glass bottom boat trip or snorkelling experience, and we chose the glass bottom boat. The 30 minute boat trip was very underwhelming, the boat hovered for a few minutes over some bleached out looking coral, with a spiel delivered by the driver,and then raced back for the next tour group. It very much felt like a money making exercise that I would not recommend. There was also no advance notice that the Turtle Rehabilitation Centre on the Island was closed. We ended up coming back 2 hours early and were a bit disappointed overall.

Great snorkeling experience at Nudey Beach. Glad we had stinger suits as we did see a few different stingers and also non stinging jellies. Saw turtles, various fish. Beautiful clear water.

Smooth transfer to beautiful island. Book the snorkeling equipment and glass bottom boat package, well worth it!
Can bring your own food and non-alcoholic drinks, order at Foxy’s or buy at the general store. We got our meals takeaway from Foxy’s and ate at the beach

Amazing experience, the reef is so close to the island we could truly swim into and see how beautiful it is. Got a peak of a turtle and a beautiful sting ray as well. The water is so warm and the food and drinks were great at the café on the island the only issue we had was that the cafè only serves food from 11.30 so make sure you bring food with you in the morning.
