We have young children travelling with us. What activities are suitable for children at either Green Island or the Great Barrier Reef Platform?
There are many activities for younger children to do and enjoy. Green Island: Green Island is great for families with young children. Together you can take the glass bottom boat tour, try snorkelling or just wading in the shallow water and enjoy playing on the beach. You can also take a leisurely stroll through the rainforest to the colourful interpretive centre. There are also some optional activities at an additional cost you might like to try on the island. Marineland Melanesia is a crocodile and marine life habit with a small museum. They have a daily crocodile feeding show – you can even have your photo taken holding a baby crocodile which the kids absolutely love! At the end of the jetty, there is the unique Underwater Observatory where they can see “Nemo”, the famous clown fish. Children’s entry is free of charge when accompanied by a paying adult. Paddling in a canoe (available from Beach Hire) is another activity you may find enjoyable with young children. Outer Reef Platform
