Most of the Great Barrier Reef is seen from sea level, but you can get above the action with these thrilling floatplane tours taking off from the waters of Cooktown, Queensland. In business since 1972, this is the only seaplane operator north of Cairns. Their most popular tour is over Lizard Island, a national park and sacred spot to the local Aborigines. The one-of-a-kind flight takes you above the dazzling white sand hills behind Cape Flattery, and around the East Hope Islands and reefs of the remote and hard to reach areas of the far north part of the state.
