Heron Island
Heron Island is a true coral cay right on the World Heritage Listed Great Barrier Reef. Here you can swim straight off the beach to an endless garden of coral where the waters are literally teeming with beautifully coloured fish and marine life.
It's what you don't see around Heron that makes the resort so special. You won't see any buildings above the tree line. And you won't bump into any daytrippers either. The reef experience on Heron is exclusively for guests, a unique experience few other resorts in the world can offer. There's a relaxed island lifestyle that sets Heron apart, a sophisticated yet casual resort atmosphere. Here the emphasis is on exploring and discovering the natural attractions that have made Heron famous around the world.
You'll enjoy some of the world's best reef diving. There's a choice of spectacular sites just minutes from the beach, and can you imagine a better place to learn to dive?
Join a guided reef walk to learn more about the unique ecology of the Great Barrier Reef, snorkel off the beach and come face to face with the kaleidoscope of marine life just below the surface or spend the day just lazing by the pool. The choice is yours.
At night there's live entertainment, dancing or a quiet drink at the Pandanus Lounge. As you would expect, Heron takes great pride in maintaining the highest standards of food and service.
Heron is renowned for its abundance of birdlife with dense Pisonia forests which are home to thousands of Noddy Terns and twenty thousand Shearwater Mutton Birds.
A Heron holiday combines the rare excitement of nature with all the comforts of an international resort.
