Product Description
Located amidst the glistening waters of the Great Barrier Reef, Orpheus Island Lodge is a rare island hideaway off the coast of Townsville accommodating just 28 indulged guests. The island itself, comprising more than 1,000 hectares of national park, stretches across 11km of immaculate turquoise coastline and is surrounded by pristine, protected Marine Park waters.
Orpheus showcases a plethora of once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Its local dive and snorkel sites boast 1,100 of the 1,500 species of fish on the reef, 340 of the 359 varieties of hard corals and some of the region’s largest collections of soft corals; the turquoise local waters are a fisherman’s playground and home to the most sought-after reef species in the world.
