Wunderschön!

Die Wanderwege, Natur, sowie die Strände und Natur auf Fitzroy Island sind wirklich unfassbar schön. Bei den Rundwegen sollte man allerdings festes Schuhwerk dabei haben und mit steilen Steigungen und ein paar Stufen kein Problem haben. Mit durchschnittlicher Fitness aber locker machbar.

Perfect day

Great day at Fitzroy Island boarded our boat and departed Cairns right on time, smooth trip and pleasant staff, spent most of the day snorkelling, saw brown turttles, lots of tropical fish, sea cucumbers, small and giant clams and colourful corals, ended the day with a drink at Roxys Bar before hopping on board our vessel for the return trip to Cairns
