Pack the most punch into your itinerary with this express half-day tour of the Frankland Islands starting from Cairns. See more of the island with a four-hour and 30-minute adventure that will take you to some of the most picturesque parts of the Great Barrier Reef. Your day will start with complimentary coach transfers from your Cairns accommodation, ensuring you can ease into your day and relax, preparing yourself for the adventure ahead. Once on board, you'll embark on a leisurely tropical rainforest river cruise along the Mulgrave River, your gateway to the Great Barrier Reef. When you reach the mouth of the Mulgrave River, you'll head out to Normanby Island, one of the five islands that make up the Frankland Islands group.

Once you arrive, enjoy swimming, stand-up paddle boarding and more, as you explore this rich and delicate marine ecosystem. Choose from either a guided snorkelling tour or a trip on a semi-submersible boat to stay dry and see the wonders of the reef.
