Frankland Islands Express Day Tour
A half-day Great Barrier Reef trip with time to swim, snorkel or relax on the beach, plus use of kayaks and paddleboards and a choice of one guided activity (semi-submarine or beach snorkel).
Short on time but still want to experience the best of the reef? Our new Express Tour is perfect for those looking for a later start and an earlier return - ideal for families with young children, cruise ship passengers, or those who want to fit more into their Cairns itinerary.
Enjoy all the magic of Normanby Island and the Great Barrier Reef with core inclusions such as:
Time to swim, explore the island, or simply relax on the beach
Kayaks and stand-up paddleboards are available for use
Choice of one guided activity (semi-sub tour or guided beach snorkelling tour)
This express tour does not include the adventure snorkel safari, guided island walk or kids treasure hunt, and has an optional picnic lunch add-on, making it a more flexible, value-conscious option.
