Winter at Orpheus Island Lodge, Great Barrier Reef brings warm, sunny days in the high 20s and crystal-clear waters.

The wildlife in the waters surrounding Orpheus Island Lodge are abundant year-round but during winter guests have the ultimate front-row seats to witness humpback and minke whales on their migration to warmer waters for calving.

Between June and September, the Coral Sea becomes a vibrant passageway for humpback whales making their annual migration north. These gentle giants can often be spotted breaching and tail-slapping just offshore a breathtaking display of power and grace. Guests at Orpheus Island Lodge can observe them from the shoreline, during reef cruises, or even while kayaking and paddleboarding in calm waters.

With direct access to the powder-soft sand and inviting water mere footsteps away but discreetly set amongst tropical gardens, the South Beachfront Suites offer generous proportions and a harmonious blend of contemporary and laid-back luxe island aesthetic.

Availability is limited across the 14 rooms and suites during this popular time of year, but the team are on hand to help you find suitable stay dates and create the perfect winter escape to our island paradise.
