Lizard Island
Experience · Queensland, Australia
Australia's northernmost luxury resort island, on the outer Great Barrier Reef. 40 villas, 24 powder-sand beaches, and direct access to Cod Hole — arguably the best dive site in the country. Adults-only, all-inclusive.
Why stay
You're inside the reef — snorkelling straight off the beach, with one of Australia's best dive ops on site. Cod Hole, the Ribbon Reefs, and the Pixies are all morning runs.
Getting there
1-hour scenic flight from Cairns. Hinterland Aviation runs the daily charter.
