Day 1 - Haggerstone Island,
6 nights
On arrival at Cairns Airport, transfer to your charter
flight for the journey to Haggerstone Island. This
stunning two-hour flight takes you over tropical
rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef. If you are lucky
you may be able to spot a crocodile sunning itself on the
beach, perhaps the shadow of a shark in the shallows, or a
turtle or manta ray wallowing in the waters just off the
coastline.
On Hick Island, Roy Turner will meet you for the boat trip
across the channel to Haggerstone Island. After a long
morning’s journey you will quickly relax into the rhythm
of this remote island oasis.
Accommodation ranges in style from the Robinson Crusoe
Beach House to the Tree House built amongst the forest
canopy. Each is uniquely decorated with local artefacts,
shells, driftwood, and each has a wooden deck with views
to the ocean. The main living area is a large timber room,
with open kitchen, dining area and library. The garden is
a pleasure and much of the produce is home grown. Combined
with fresh caught fish each meal is refreshingly simple
and totally delicious.
Day 2 to 6 - Haggerstone
Island
Lose yourself in island life, Haggerstone is a unique
wilderness site and offers unparalleled remoteness and
exclusivity. Roy and Anna Turner have made it their home
since 1985 and it is one of Australia’s greatest natural
experiences.
Roy’s knowledge of the reef, its fish, birds and other
marine inhabitants is second to none and a series of day
trips will include visits to nearby reefs for snorkelling
and catching lobsters, trips to the outer reef where the
coral formations finally drop into the deep blue abyss of
the Pacific ocean, journeys up the coastal rivers to see
rainforest and the land based wildlife and visits to the
magnificent silica dunes of Cape Grenville.
Along the way there will be stops to swim amongst pristine
coral reefs, fish for your lunch and picnic on freshly
caught lobster on uninhabited sand cays.
Day 7 - Return to Cairns
After breakfast, Roy will
transfer you to Hick Island for your private
charter flight to Cairns.
