More about Lizard Island ...
During his epic voyage of 1770, Captain James Cook climbed the peak on Lizard Island to chart a course out to sea through the maze of reefs which confronted him. Today Lizard Island offers an escape of a different kind, a unique holiday at the Great Barrier Reef's northernmost island resort.

You can snorkel off a secluded beach to discover a garden of giant clams, many a metre long, and some reputed to be over 120 years old.   Lizard Island is renowned for its diving and there are 24 soft, powdery white beaches just waiting to be explored.  At the world famous Cod Hole you'll come face to face with a massive Potato Cod swimming right up to inspect you with child like curiosity.

Order a picnic lunch for two and a guide will show  you to a private beach to enjoy this magic location undisturbed.
There are many magnificent walks on which you are likely to glimpse a monitor, the lizard after which the island was named. Dining on Lizard is superb using fresh local produce prepared with European and Asian influences.

All meals and most activities are included in the tariff and although the island is remote, access is surprisingly easy.
