Fringed by bays of unspoilt sandy beaches, wreathed in spectacular coral gardens, invigorated with native flora and fauna, Orpheus Island is as captivating as the music of the legendary lyre player.

Since the 1930's, the serene Orpheus Island has quietly lured those seeking sanctuary from the rest of the world. The enchanted isle stretches for 11 kms through warm, clear waters of the Coral Sea, 24 kms off the Queensland coast between Townsville and Cairns.
