Exceptional, very varied, and extremely tasty, whether breakfast, lunch or dinner. Commendations to the chef for the way he manages to mix and match textures and flavours. Some of the dishes wouldn't look out of place on a Michelin Starred menu! - Steve and Alice

Introducing: Lizard Lager
Created in partnership with Hemingway’s Brewery, Lizard Lager features a distinctive lizard motif on its 375ml branded can and is already chilling in guests’ in-suite bars. It’s also available on tap at the resort’s breezy Driftwood Bar. Lizard Lager uses 100 per cent pale Australian malt for an uncomplicated sweet, hay-like character along with traditional German hops for subtle spice, fine bitterness and refreshing citrus flavours.
The idea for Lizard Lager came about from two beer lovers enjoying a couple of quiet ones at sunset and talking about creating the perfect brew that reflects the island. This is a fabulous example of two local companies working together and supporting each other – as well as creating something truly unique and memorable for everyone to enjoy.

Lizard Island Gin Tasting Masterclass
Wolf Lane Tropical Gin features botanicals sourced from the region’s Atherton Tablelands along with tropical fruit flavours like grapefruit, lime and mango, and is best served over ice with soda and a garnish of grapefruit. Wolf Lane gin flight tastings are a popular sunset pastime at the Driftwood Bar and feature three of the distillery’s spirits, Tropical Gin, Navy Strength Gin and Davidson Plum Gin.
Sam Kennis who co-owns Wolf Lane Distillery in Cairns said the small batch distilled Tropical Gin was crafted in partnership with the food and beverage team at Lizard Island with the idea of creating a tropical style gin that was refreshing and unique to Tropical North Queensland.
Guests also have the opportunity to take home their very own bottle of signature Lizard Island gin.
