There are two airports in the region, offering flights from most capital cities.
We have 2 package options available, Island Packages will have you staying at Daydream Island Resort and Yacht Packages will have you staying onboard one of two sailing yachts.
Daydream Island is small, only 1km from north to south so you can stroll the whole island in 15 minutes.
Guests are not permitted to bring their own food or beverages onto Daydream Island, including alcohol. If you purchased a Yacht Package you can bring your own drinks onboard the yacht but you must not take them to shore.
Both package options will have a range of activities for you to enjoy free of charge, such as swimming, snorkeling and stand up paddle boarding. There will be a range of additional activities on offer which can be pre-booked and pre-paid at a later stage. These include scenic flights, reef tours, jet ski rentals and more.
Daydream Island boasts three signature restaurants, Infinity is an innovative Asian fusion restaurant, Graze is a classic buffet with a diverse range of cuisine and Inkstone Kitchen and Bar focuses on modern Australian cuisine. With three new bars on the Island there are plenty of options to keep you well fed and hydrated.
There are two types of ‘stingers’ in the area: the Irukandji Jellyfish and the Box Jellyfish. These are present year-round, but there is a higher risk between October and May. It is therefore recommended to wear a protective stinger suit.
