Green Island HALF DAY Tour Ex Cairns | Snorkel & Dive Great Barrier Reef Australia

Spend a half day morning or spend a half day afternoon snorkelling, shopping, beachcombing, scuba diving, or watching pre-historic crocodiles being fed on Green Island.

This is Cairns most popular island and most popular half day reef trip.
