With its spectacular sunsets and private beaches it is a truly breathtaking holiday destination within reach of Australian and New Zealand travellers situated 240kms north of Cairns and 27 kilometres off the Queensland coastline.
Your stay in paradise
From the clifftop villa, to the beachfront suites and plunge pool villa’s, Lizard Island has accommodation types to suit all travellers seeking space, style and tranquility.
Overlooking the Coral sea with natural, meandering pathways leading down to some of the Islands private beaches, step off your deck and enjoy the absolute serenity in this tropical oasis closed off from the outside world.
At Lizard Island you will enjoy drinks at the Driftwood bar with private wine cellar. The freshest local seafood cooked to perfection by the chefs at Salt Water Restaurant taking full advantage of the 180-degree ocean views.
Take it all in
Do as much or as little as you like. Curl up by the pool on your sun lounger with a good book, paper yourself and rejuvenate at the day spa. Or set off and explore all the island and the reef has to offer in your glass bottom sea kayak, paddle board or motorised dinghy with a gourmet picnic in hand.
It is the perfect place to explore the reef right from your doorstep with snorkelling right off the sparking white beaches with crystal clear water.
Organised scuba dive experiences to sites like “The Cod Hole” and fishing charters with the Marine team will ensure you maximise all the island has to offer.
Create new memories, unwind and take in nature’s majestic beauty.
