Cape Tribulation forms part of the Daintree National Park, which is a World Heritage Site. It stretches in a narrow, discontinuous strip from the Daintree River in the south to the Bloomfield River in the north. The Cape has impenetrable ranges, that rise steeply from the coast, and are covered with dense upland rain forests that support many ancient plants and animals. Address: . | Cape Tribulation, QL

Great Barrier Reef + My Favorites
One of the true marvels of the natural world, the Great Barrier Reef runs the entire length of Queensland, Australia. The reef, created by living coral over the span of 18 million years, is 2000 Km (1243 Mi) long and in places more than 500 meters (1640 Ft) thick. Coral is very particular about the conditions in which it grows, and the waters off the coast of Queensland prove ideal for sustaining both living coral and the hard "skeleton" left when it dies. There are 400 types of coral found in the reef, and thousands of species of fish, sponge, crustaceans and molluscs, some of which can be dangerous.
Approximately 2600 smaller reefs comprise the Great Barrier Reef, making this the most extensive reef system in the world. The reef can be found 50km (30mi) from the shoreline, and is a fantastic site for diving and snorkelling. Great places to base your trip to the reef are Bundaberg in the south, Gladstone, Mackay, and Cairns in the north with points between.
Cairn's Promenade + My Favorites
Centrally located in Cairns near the Pier, the promenade is a great place to fraternize with locals and residents alike. People gather here to sunbathe, people-watch, barbecue or cool off in the artificail lagoon. Address: . | Cairns, QL [ Map ]
