Scotty's Beach House is a 100 bed backpackers resort across the road from the yellow sands of Mission Beach. Their air conditioned accommodation ranges from traditional bunkhouse-style dormitories to ensuited double/twin rooms, all linked by a wide verandah that surrounds their tropical gardens. The centrepiece is an 18 metre pool with a three metre deep end that is refreshing all year round, complete with shady hammocks slung between the fringing coconut palms. A fully licensed bar and bistro are located on the beachfront side of the resort and offers a wide range of tasty meals. Many other eateries are within easy walking distance of the resort. Scotty's Beach House is not licensed, so guests are free to purchase their own alcohol for consumption on site. Mission Beach is the premium location to skydive onto the beach or go white water rafting on the mighty Tully River, but there are a variety of other local tours for the not-so adventurous including Great Barrier Reef cruises, Dunk Island exploration and rainforest walking tracks. Fishing is popular, and rods are available for hire. With a variety of local tours, range of accommodation and their chilled atmosphere, Scotty's offers something for everyone.
