Discover the Daintree Rainforest
Explore a landscape of tropical rainforest, winding waterways and beautiful beaches in the Daintree region, north of Cairns and Port Douglas.
Home to remarkable plant and animal life, the Daintree offers countless opportunities to experience nature. Discover rainforest walks, coastal lookouts and local attractions, or head offshore with Ocean Safari to explore the Great Barrier Reef.
From Daintree Village to Cow Bay, Thornton Beach and Cape Tribulation, each part of the region offers something different. Take your time, explore at your own pace and discover what makes this corner of Tropical North Queensland so special.
Experience the Rainforest & Reef
At Cape Tribulation, the World Heritage-listed Wet Tropics rainforest and Great Barrier Reef lie side by side, offering the chance to experience both during your visit.
Join Ocean Safari for a small-group snorkelling adventure departing from Cape Tribulation. Explore colourful coral gardens and discover the marine life of Mackay Reef, with the rainforest-covered coastline providing a spectacular backdrop.
