Near Port douglas in a nutshell- so much to see and do 

The best of Port Douglas is right at your door.

You're in the sweet spot.  Close enough to town for a morning coffee on Macross Street and close enough to 4 Mile Beach for an evening swim.. Or if you want to venture even less head downstairs to the onsite Restaurant and swim up bar.

Holidays in Port Douglas provide the opportunity to discover the World Heritage listed Daintree National Park. Spectacular Mossman Gorge is located only a 20 min drive away. Crocodile spotting on the Daintree River is popular and exhilarating and day trips to Cape Tribulation area also possible. The hinterland is packed full of food and waterfall trails.
