I recently went to Cairns in far north Queensland Australia and found myself with a free Sunday afternoon. I asked around with the locals for suggestions on a great way to spend this extra time. After a few inputs, I noticed two words kept coming up – Green Island. I’d never heard of it, but the locals know it well. They told me it would be a great way to spend a lazy Sunday while in Cairns. So, like a good tourist, I booked a ticket for Green Island.
Although I never heard of Green Island until that fateful Sunday, apparently much of the rest of the world has … the mammoth sized boat was overflowing with tourists. As we cruised along, the chatter on board was animated, lively and most of it in foreign languages. But, I could easily work out that the passengers were excited and happy to be making the voyage over to Green Island. And, I started getting excited about the adventure as well. After all, this many people traveling from far away countries must know the good tourist spots. I was lucky that day; Green Island is one such spot. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit.
While on my Green Island Adventure I took a few photos and videos with my trusty phone and came up with a short video. I’ve included it in this post so you can get an idea of what you’re in for if you ever make the journey to Green Island. If you ever travel to Cairns, I highly recommend you book your very own Green Island Adventure!
