Lizard Island Resort is one of a kind - a work of natures art. Located right on the Great Barrier Reef.  Lizard Island is a private paradise with 24 powdery white beaches.

During his epic voyage of 1770, Captain James Cook climbed the peak on Lizard Island to chart a course out to sea through the maze of reefs which confronted him. Today Lizard Island Resort offers an escape of a different kind. A unique holiday on the Great Barrier Reef's northern most island resort. If you're looking for something out of the ordinary, then Lizard Island Resort should be top of the list. Lizard Island Resort is without question, one of Australia's premier resorts. Being right on the Great Barrier Reef is rare enough, but Lizard Island offers the full spectrum - both the inner and outer Reef experiences.

On Lizard Island you can snorkel off a secluded beach to discover a garden of giant clams, many a metre long and some reputed to be over 120 years old. And there are 23 more soft, powdery white beaches just waiting to be explored. Lizard Island Resort is renowned for its diving. At the world famous 'Cod Hole', you'll come face to face with a massive yet curious Potato Cod swimming right up to inspect you with child-like curiosity. Whilst the fish may not respect your privacy, we certainly will. In fact, we'll pack a picnic lunch for two and guide you to a 'private beach' to enjoy this magic location undisturbed.

There are many magnificent walks, and on at least one you can expect to glimpse a Monitor, the lizard after which Lizard Island was named. Healthy appetites are then rewarded with superb dining - fresh local produce prepared with European and Asian influence. For pure indulgence, The Pavilion Spa on Lizard Island Resort reflects the ancient and the now. Treatments, remedies and secrets from around the world carefully chosen to present to you, our special guest, total harmony between health, beauty and nature. Your chosen indulgence will include refreshment and an ambience to reflect the culture of its origin.
