Crocodile centre. - Great 1hour boat ride to the island, very enjoyable 30mins on the glass bottom boat, the coral was amazing! short board walk into the little centre where there was a good selection of food and drinks. nice wee short walk to swimming spots too. Biggest surprise was the Crocodile park/ centre this is a must to do as there is an incredible collection of carvings and memorabilia as well as the crocs, fish and the big turtle. make sure you catch the feeding tour. very informative guides. My biggest concern was there would be way too many people crammed on the island But there wasnt. At one wee beach I was the only one there! Great tour thank you all.

Great experience - Great experience, went for snorkeling. Only two places to go snorkeling, would much rather spent my money to go to Fritzory island and see the rief. Didn’t really see anything exciting here. Might be because i went during a low period of turtles. Anyways, the crew on the boat was great. A bit long line to get the snorkeling gear but that is just how it is. Don’t really need a wet suit or any kind of suit, i just ended up returing it strait away as i did not see the point of using it. Did the hike, not very long. it is a small island

Glass boat tour is nice - Nice tour bit massieve and very touristic. Glass boat tour is very Nice, with a gold tour guide but short, only half an hour. The eco walk is a big dissapointing. Of you dont need to laybon the beach the whole day, half a day is enough to visit green island.
