The Daintree is a world heritage listed region and one of Australia’s most iconic national parks: well worth visiting, it offers a range of experiences suited to all tastes. Very popular with day trips from Cairns and Port Douglas, it can at times be very busy: in addition, the Cape Trib area is also popular with international backpackers. A few days is required to take in all that the Daintree has to offer, from National Park rainforest boardwalks and other hikes, boat trips on the Daintree spotting crocodiles, spotting cassowaries, splendid beaches including iconic reef/rainforest interfaces and 4WDing the renowned CREB and Bloomfield tracks, just to name a few. Accommodation ranges from camping to luxury and there is a wide range of eating options in peak times.

went on a road trip and decided to spend 3 nights in the daintree. It is such a beautiful and special place. We stayed at Ocean safari and did the walks around Cape Tribulation.

Such a beautiful place. The drive through the trees & mountains is so picturesque. Be sure to do the boardwalks, they are a very easy walk & very well signed. We even happened to see our first Cassowary on this trip. We stopped at all the gorgeous little beaches on our way to Cape Trib, so beautiful. The ferry over & back was $31 return & was no hassle. Was a great family day out. Highly recommend doing this drive.…
