Heron Island is a true coral cay, located right on the Great Barrier Reef. The island is ribboned by sugar white sands, crystal clear waters and acres of brilliant coral with beautifully coloured marine life.

At this World Heritage-Listed Marine National Park, all flora and fauna is protected, so the island is a nature lover's paradise, where the emphasis is on enjoying natural beauty. Stress is replaced by a sense of adventure, and your days are filled with discovery.

Heron offers many activities such as guided island and reef walks, semi-submersible cruises and private beach picnics.

An amazing array of animal and bird life can be discovered throughout the year, such as the delightful Green and Loggerhead Turtles.

Heron is also world famous for its fantastic scuba diving and snorkelling. Experience some of Australias best dive spots - more than 20 dive sites are available, half of which are only 15 minutes from the beach.

If its school holidays, you can sign the kids up for the Heron Junior Rangers (7-12yrs), where theyll get up close and personal with a wonderful variety of marine creatures, and explore the fascinating coral cay forest and woodlands.

At Heron Island, you won't see any buildings above the treeline, as the resort has been thoughtfully designed to blend with the surrounding environment.
