“ Great day out! You’re given plenty of time to explore the island and the staff provide you with a variety of activities you can choose to do. The boat is clean and comfortable and the staff are happy to answer questions or provide any help. A great way to get to the island and explore.

Raging Thunder staff is good

Michelle McQuiggin 11 months ago

Raging Thunder staff is good, helpful and friendly. Sitting on the upper deck it’s difficult to hear the announcements. I would suggest telling passengers it’s a national park so don’t litter, collect coral or stand on the live coral. Protecting the reef is a priority. Unfortunately, the alga was a bit gross but that’s nature!

It was awesome

Mel Beaton 1 year ago

It was awesome, the island is so beautiful!! It was really easy to book, the staff had my ticket immediately after I booked through Experience Oz. Something to note - if travelling with kids you need to book for your infant too because the boat needs to know exactly how many people are on board.

The crew was very helpful

Laura Romig 1 year ago

The crew was very helpful. The marine biologist is knowledgeable. The hikes on the island are challenging. The one to the top is well worth the climb. The beach was nice with lots of coral on it. It is a relaxing day that is well organized and the staff at the restaurant were nice.

I highly recommend visiting Fitzroy overall

Alastair Molony 1 year ago

I highly recommend visiting Fitzroy overall, but the crew on the cruise and at the island made the whole experience that much more of a memorable one. I visited with a few of my mates and we had a blast, from rafting to kayaking, to snorkelling. It was a fantastic experience and one that will surely have us going back really soon.

Fitzroy is an amazing island which you have to visit when you are in Cairns

Julia Neuberger 2 years ago

Fitzroy is an amazing island which you have to visit when you are in Cairns! The boat crew was funny and motivated. The island has activities for everyone - no matter if you want to hike to the beautiful top from the island or relax on a wonderful beach and snorkel. I’m happy that I booked a full day there because I’m pretty sure a half day is way too less to explore and enjoy the island!

Fitzroy Island is a nice place to spend a day

Dimple Poojari 2 years ago

Fitzroy Island is a nice place to spend a day. My husband and I went this week and the overall experience was good except for the ferry arriving late to pick up in the evening because of which we ended up getting drenched in rain. We spent time snorkelling and kayaking. The food at Foxy's bar was great. Few things that need improvement is to let people know about the locker facility as we missed it completely and only realized later in the evening as well as the fact that there is no sand on the beach and reef shoes are required.

I had an incredible experience on Fitzroy Island

Chiara Nakashian 3 years ago

I had an incredible experience on Fitzroy Island. There is so much to do there. I went from swimming with turtles to hiking to snorkelling. Each experience was more beautiful than the next. I highly recommend the summit trail, it’s steep but well worth the view from the top. Lastly, the crew of the ‘Raging Thunder’ were wonderful. Super friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend this day trip.

What an awesome day it was to experience with my boyfriend

Chantelle Cameron 3 years ago

What an awesome day it was to experience with my boyfriend. Nice relaxing beach, the lighthouse walk was absolutely amazing and also was the secret garden walk (we saw lots of lizards). Near White Rock, we got to experience swimming next to a turtle and it was so incredible. The reef and the coral are amazing and we got to see a lot of the reef animals such as schools of fish, a tiny reef shark, 2 turtles and many other different fish. Also loved the trampoline in the water, it made us feel like children again. Definitely would recommend!

Fitzroy Island is a nice place

Neil Springell 3 years ago

Fitzroy Island is a nice place, especially as so much is National Park. The island is not really well-placed to cater to day-trippers. The business that runs the bar and cafe (Foxy's) plays awful music (mostly too loud as well). The rubbish bins are too small for the crowd and are often filled to over-flowing. Apart from the seating area at Foxy's Bar, and a small picnic shed in the Camping Grounds, there is no seating provided to the public. This is especially a problem for older folk, and those needing to find a seat that is not at ground level. Covered shaded areas are also at a minimum. If one hasn't booked lunch with an excursion package, there is little in the way of affordable & healthy food that is able to be purchased on the island. Some visitors left rubbish on the track to Nudey Beach (which I picked up), and some folks even used the track for running as fast as they can (which is obviously dangerous). Some cautionary and advisory signs and/or ranger presence would be beneficial.

Unfortunately there was an error. Please try again later.

“Get out and try the Ocean Trampoline at Fitzroy Island. It’s included when you travel with Raging Thunder and is awesome fun for all ages!”
