The Unique Beauty Of Green Island

Green Island is an ancient coral cay, and the only one on the Great Barrier Reef that is also home to a rainforest! Formed around 6,000 years ago, this Great Barrier Reef island is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna. Situated within that rainforest is Green Island Eco Resort, where resort accommodation blends with environmental sustainability.
