We had a fabulous half-day trip to Green Island. We made our booking directly at the terminal/booking office about 30 minutes before the 1pm ferry was about to depart. The booking process was easy, and details were well explained. The ferry ride over was smooth. We were booked on the 2:15pm glass bottom boat; the lady who led the tour was knowledgeable and informative. She explained the fauna well and her style was engaging. The half day tour provides enough time for a leisurely stroll around the island which takes about 30 minutes (more if you stop to look at things). Instructions throughout the tour were clear, especially reminders about returning to the ferry by 4pm in order to catch the 4:15 ferry back to Cairns. All in all, it was a well run operation, things were on time and progressed smoothly, and staff were welcoming and helpful. Our party consisted of three adults, including one person in their late 80s. The tour was comfortable for a person who doesn't walk more than 5-10mins. There is the need for some climbing of stairs. Recommended that you bring your own food to Green Island; catering options are limited to fast food or restaurant food. I'd definitely recommend Green Island Tours.

Had a lovely day out snorkeling. The boat ride was fabulous. Saw loads of fish. Went on the morning trip just as well as when it was time to leave the tide was really low. So where we were swimming a few hours before you could only walk.
