Willis Island is the only permanently inhabited island in the Coral Sea Islands Territory, an external territory of Australia, located beyond the Great Barrier Reef in the Coral Sea. The island is located some 450 kilometres east of Cairns, Queensland.

The city of Cairns is the heart of the Tropical North – a focal point for visitors and local inhabitants alike. Founded in 1876 as a port for the Hodkinson River goldfield 60 miles inland, the settlement that served pioneers, fossickers and thousands of diggers has long outlived these shifts in fortune to become one of the world’s most attractive vacation destinations. Built on the banks of the Trinity Inlet in Far North Queensland, this coastal city resting along the world famous Great Barrier Reef puts out its welcome mat all year round. With its traditional “pubs” – old time hotels, cosmopolitan eateries, outdoor living, homespun markets, exclusive boutiques and locally crafted wares offset by a mass of flowering shrubs and the backdrop of the forest-clad Whitefield Range; it is a city that will delight you visually and historically. General Information Ship will anchor at Trinity Wharf Points of Interest: Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, Botanical Gardens – displaying huge exotic blooms reflecting the rainforested area, and the bustling harbor with fleets of game fishing vessels, and dive boats that will take you to tropical spectacular reef sites and solitary coral cays for snorkeling.
