I lived/worked on Lizard Island for 3 months and can say that the scuba diving is beyond amazing - and theres something for all levels of experience. The Cod Hole is a simple dive or snorkel and a highlight of a lifetime and a 100% must do if you are on Lizard. Its a beautiful walk up the little hill/mountain “Cooks Look” and the views are to die for. You can fly here from Cairns or visit on a cruise out of Cairns.
