Departing from Brisbane, you'll take a short light aircraft flight to Lady Elliot Island. On arrival you'll be taken to your room at the eco-lodge, checking in for three nights. The accommodation here is simple and comfortable, with eco-cabins and beachfront units just steps from the reef. The focus is on sustainability and service with delicious meals and a relaxed, laid-back vibe.
Wake up to the sound of the waves and head out to enjoy this incredible island. Tucked away at the southern end of the Great Barrier Reef, Lady Elliot Island is in a protected 'green zone'. Home to over a thousand species of marine life, including manta rays and turtles, it's a perfect spot for snorkelling and diving, or to simply enjoying the daily glass bottom boat tours over the reef. When you're not underwater, you can soak up the natural beauty of this small island, strolling along the beaches and enjoying delicious antipasti platters for dinner as the sun sets into the ocean.
After breakfast, you'll head back to the airstrip for the short flight to Brisbane.
Southern Queensland is a year round destination, with warm weather and beautiful places to explore. Visit Lady Elliot Island between June and September to see manta rays and clear waters, November to March for turtle nesting and hatching or May to October for humpback whale migration.
