from A$149 per person

3 hours

Travel from Cairns to Dunk Island and enjoy a day of hiking, swimming, or relaxing on pristine beaches. With rainforest trails, ferry transfers, and optional camping, this tropical adventure showcases the natural beauty and activities of Dunk Island.

Embark on a full-day adventure from Cairns to Dunk Island, departing early from Cairns Reef Fleet Terminal with Myroo Coach-X. Journey through lush farmland and rainforest landscapes on your way to Mission Beach, then transfer to the QuickCoast Ferry-X for a scenic ride across the Coral Sea to Dunk Island.

Once on Dunk Island, you have the freedom to explore nearly 1,000 hectares of pristine rainforest, coastal trails, and golden beaches at your own pace. Hike to the summit of Mount Kootaloo for spectacular panoramic views, or wander shorter tracks to discover hidden lookouts and secret beaches teeming with birdlife and butterflies.

Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, there are options for everyone. Swim or snorkel in the turquoise shallows, enjoy a picnic beneath coconut palms, or simply relax on the white sands. Keep an eye out for native wildlife and colourful marine life, including turtles, tropical fish, and stingrays.

Extend your experience with an optional overnight stay at Dunk Island Camp or glamping site (advance booking required). Facilities are basic, bringing you close to nature for an authentic, tranquil getaway blending adventure and serenity in North Queensland.
