A scuba diver looking at a giant clam on the Great Barrier Reef (Photo credit: Wikipedia)I want to visit the Great Barrier Reef. Can i do a day trip if to the Reef if i stay in Hamilton or Lizard?
island?
Which island do u think is better and more secluded. I am there for my honeymoon and visitin australia for the first time. Also let me know if you recommend any accomodation.
Another thing.. since i am not much of a water sports person, what would you suggest i do.
Visit Brisbane., gold coast and some island around that area or visit the reef?
Lizard Island is probably more secluded, but Hamilton is far more popular and caters for honeymoons. There are a few ferry companies that travel around the Whitsundays, you can go on cruises to Whithaven Beach, other islands, the mainland, or out to the reef. You can buy tickets at hotels.
You can go for bushwalks on the lslands if you're into that kind of thing, or just walk around the towns and enjoy the weather.
Brisbane doesn't have much to do. The Gold Coast has four themeparks that are great fun, whatever you like. Australia Zoo on the Sunshine Coast is probably pretty busy at the moment, but if you don't mind crowds it's a fun day.
