Venture out on an exploration of the local reefs with a chef-prepared picnic hamper or relax in the Gwandalan Day Spa. Orpheus Island takes up such an advantageous position on the Great Barrier Reef that is should be a crime not to take the opportunity to dive in its beautiful waters. The marine life and coral reefs are simply stunning and there is an estimated 1,100 species of fish around the area.
