Visit one of the most beautiful islands in Australia - Lady Elliot Island - off the coast of QLD with an epic day trip to explore the Great Barrier Reef! This Lady Elliot Island day trip package from Brisbane includes everything you'll need to get to Lady Elliot without having to organise a thing. Return scenic air flights mean you'll not only have transport to the island but also get some stunning views of the reef and Australia's eastern coastline from high above; something that's truly unmatchable in terms of visual splendour.
Upon arriving on the island, you'll have five hours to explore both Lady Elliot and the reef itself, with such activities as snorkelling, glass-bottom boat tours, guided reef walks and island orientation walks all on offer; how you wish to enjoy your time in this wonderful Great Barrier Reef environment is entirely up to you. Take some time out to sit back and enjoy the delicious seafood buffet lunch with champagne in these lovely surrounds, then take advantage of use of all the guest facilities on the island to freshen up - or perhaps hand-feed some fish in the expansive lagoon pool.
