Fitzroy Island
About Fitzroy Island
Fitzroy Island is a 45-minute boat transfer from Cairns, home to family-owned and operated Fitzroy Resort. This small island surrounded by a reef system makes it the perfect accessible base for snorkelling or diving while exploring this beautiful area's rich marine life which includes many species of fish you can't see anywhere else!
The beaches are lush green forests on top of Foolish Water where waves break against centuries-old rock formations creating stunning shorelines that lead into safe waters ideal for both swimming and water sports.
Fitzroy Island is a pristine paradise that's close to the heart of Cairns and its surrounding community. The island has been freely accessible for many years, with several daily flights from Brisbane or local fishermen using secure public moorings on offer here too! It takes about an hour flight time depending on where you're coming into town - just be sure not to miss out by getting down under before your visit times runs out!
Fitzroy has a tropical climate, but thanks to its proximity and the cooling effects of ocean breezes it is much more moderate than most other parts of North Queensland. Welcome Bay can be found here where temperatures range from 24-31 degrees Celsius (75°F) during summertime all year long; while winter evening lows dip below 19 degrees celsius(66 °f).
