Great Barrier Reef, Australia, Australasia and South Pacific
Welcome to paradise - Orpheus Island, a peaceful haven of luxury on one of the most pristine areas of the Great Barrier Reef. Spend your days snorkelling through vibrant coral gardens, hiking through the island's lush interior and paddleboarding in the turquoise waters. Take a dinghy to secluded beaches, enjoy a picnic on the sands and look for whales as they migrate up the coast between May and October.
Each evening you can tuck into gourmet meals of fresh, garlicky seafood and local fish, all paired with premium wines, whilst you watch the sun set into the ocean. The island accommodates up to 28 guests, keeping the atmosphere relaxed and intimate, perfect for a honeymoon or anniversary escape. Whether you fancy trying a cocktail making class, a low tide reef walk or enjoying a romantic starlit dinner on the jetty, you're time here will be something you remember forever.
The ideal time to visit the Great Barrier Reef is during the dry season, between April and November. You'll find mild temperatures and minimal rainfall and between June to September you'll also have the opportunity to see whales as they migrate up the coast.
