Despite the up-market reputation, the budget traveller will not be
disappointed as cheap accommodation and places to eat are in plentiful
supply. An excellent meal can be had for well under AUD$10.00 at a
range of pubs, cafe's and take ways.
Coral Coaches run daily services from Cairns.
Getting around Port Douglas is also easy on a pushbike or on foot as
its all flat land.
Just one hour north of Cairns, and offering a
varied choice of places to stay with a style to suit your needs. From
budget backpacker hostels, bed and breakfast home stay, hotels,
holiday apartments, luxurious private homes and family holiday
resorts.
Once you have chosen your Pt Douglas accommodation
you can then find plenty to explore, and only a fifteen minute drive
north is the town of Mossman and the Mossman Gorge. Mossman Gorge
gives you the chance to relax in the cool clear waters or take the
dedicated walking track through the Wet Tropics Rainforest. Further
north you can take a boat trip and go crocodile spotting on the
Daintree River or head further North to the townships of Bloomfield
and historic township of Cooktown. So why not add some tropical
sparkle to your holiday and visit this great piece of paradise on the
fringe of the Great Barrier Reef and Rainforest in Tropical North
Queensland Australia. Come and say g'day!
