Friday - Your first port of call is Green Island where you
can join the Marine Naturalist for an escorted walk,
board a glass bottom boat tour or relax with a cocktail
at the resort pool.
Saturday - Snorkellers come face to face with clouds
of intensely coloured reef fish. Passengers in the
glass-bottomed boat hear our marine naturalist describe
life among the coral bomboras of Hedley Reef. A whole

Sunday - A breathtaking cruising passage through the Hinchinbrook
Channel. Enjoy the spectacular vista of densely forested
mountains, mangroves and sun-drenched beaches in the
morning mist. Our marine naturalist explains the channel’s
diverse habitats that shelter species from dugongs
and dolphins to migrating whales. In the high rainforest
canopies of Dunk Island exotic bird and plant life
abounds. There is life too at the island’s resort
where you can drop in for a quiet drink, a hit of tennis,
a round of golf or a swim. |
