Itinerary

Day 1

Heron Island: Arrive at Heron Island - a World Heritage Listed coral cay right on the Great Barrier Reef.

Set amongst a dazzling parade of aquamarine waters, shimmering white sand beaches and color-splashed reefs teeming with life, Heron Island resort is designed in harmony with its spectacular natural surrounds and provides for a holiday that is both relaxing and comfortable.

On Heron Island, you will be met by your Wilson Island hosts, check into your accommodation and then the Island is yours to explore as you wish. Drop by the Marine Centre to get fitted with snorkeling gear, perhaps join one of the Island's naturalists for a reef walk or maybe settle into a sun lounge - cocktail-in-hand - and just enjoy the views.

In the evening you'll have the chance to meet your fellow Wilson Island adventurers. Your Wilson Island hosts will provide a briefing on the Island and over welcome drinks you can find out all there is to know about Wilson Island including your scheduled departure time. Later, enjoy a three-course dinner at Heron's Shearwater Restaurant.

As Wilson Island is such a carefree destination, you won't need to take a great deal with you. On returning to your room, you will find a Wilson Island Camp Bag ready for you to pack your belongings in - the essentials you'll need for three days of fun. Your Wilson Island Hosts will organize for your Camp Bag to be collected and for your luggage to be securely stored. Your main luggage will be placed in your room when you return to Heron Island on Monday.

Our South Pacific vacation packages all begin with providing you with a fully customized itinerary (tailored to meet your every request) and continue on through your vacation and even when you return.
