What to do in Daintree and Cape Tribulation?
Cape Tribulation is a truly special place in the world where two UNESCO World Heritage-listed sites, the Daintree Rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef, meet. There are so many things to do here that will immerse you in its magic—from swimming in freshwater pools to exploring ancient Aboriginal sites.
As you drive north along the highway, roadside signs promise tourists an exceptional experience and the winding roads and stunning beaches certainly deliver. The jungle can be hot and steamy, especially in the summer months, which means the soil is rich, well irrigated, and perfect for growing bananas, mangoes, passionfruit, papaya, and a multitude of wonderful tropical fruits. Look out for these as you drive from Cairns to Cape Tribulation.
Ancient stories wind through the lush branches and leaves of the jungle down to the water’s edge of the magnificent beaches. It’s a place at the end of civilization—where crocodiles lurk and fan palms hang overhead!
Cape Tribulation is a place where you can be completely immersed in nature. You’ll find yourself surrounded by lush rainforest, with the ocean washing up at your feet. It’s hard to believe that such an epic location exists on Earth!
