If you have ever been to Port Douglas, a 45 minute drive up the Captain Cook Highway from Cairns Northern Beaches, you will know what I am talking about. There is a real vibe to the town, full of high-end to low-end hotels and resorts and amazing views of nature.
The township sits jutting out into the Coral Ocean and the Great Barrier Reef. A lot of boats head off from the jetty here, loaded with tourists who go snorkeling for the day.
The mountains surrounding the area are national park with the World Heritage listed Daintree Rainforest not too far away.
It is a magical spot. And very much worth a visit.
