About
Lizard Island is a granite island about 10 square kilometres in size, with 3 smaller islands nearby. Together these islands form the Lizard Island Group, and their well-developed fringing reef teeming with marine life encircles the 10-metre deep blue lagoon.

It retains a certain mystique due to its remote location.
When you arrive on the day, it is yours to do as you wish. You can choose to relax alone on a secluded beach.
Enjoy the company of a small group on a guided tour. Snorkel the world-famous Clam Garden or take a walk to the “Blue Lagoon”.
The choice is yours!
