The plane skimmed low.. The blue beauty of Tiffany in front of us is suffocating. We took a helicopter from Hamilton Island. After passing through Hill Bay and White Paradise Beach, we flew about 20 minutes to the sea between the deep and shallow sea beds. This time we have entered the Great Barrier Reef. Arrive at Heart Reef Heart Reef Pilot will specially remind and fly low

It was a very long and open beach! The wind is comfortable and I think it's the best for a beach picnic ✨✨ There was a place where you could barbecue along the sea 🍗 However, it was a pity that it was raining a little 💧

The most famous Cairns snorkeling depth and the starting point of helicopter activities, the pier is relatively large, docking on the magical Great Barrier Reef, Yinsuo, Sunshine Lovers and other cruise ships, there are many seafood famous Western restaurants, there are also bars, It is very lively until the evening, and you can hear the sound of seagulls and various seabirds. The morning sun shines to make people full of vitality and yearning.

Kids spent hours here and days climbing over the tree forts. I now remember exactly how great some simple fun as a child was when you could have so much fun

Looking around, it was a village full of nature, and the road from Cairns city to arrival was great! !! !! 🌿 However, it was very hot at the end of October, so ice cream was essential 🤣

The Green Island is the closest to the pier, and it is very good for seasick people, and you can go to the island. The beach is white and clear, and the sea is blue, which is very beautiful. It is very suitable for sand swimming. The snorkeling range is very large, and the seabed coral reefs and fish are visible on the clear water. It’s too hot and too suny, but unfortunately the boat arrived at the hottest time and returned in the afternoon. If it is evening, it should be cool and comfortable on the beach.

The city of Cairns is very small, the city has a very rich natural environment, on the contrary, the commercialization of the city center is not many, there are few restaurants and hotels to choose from, the city square has an empty flat land, the locals will be more on weekends. 【Cost-effective】Free visit
