At Cape Tribulation, Daintree National Park, you can experience two of Australia's most significant World Heritage sites - the Great Barrier Reef and the Wet Tropics - where they meet! A stop at Alexandra Range lookout provides a view of the lush green coastline sweeping down to the ocean's inviting blue water. Explore tropical lowland rainforest, swamps, mangroves and beaches on walks ranging from 400 metres to 1.2 kilometres. From interpretive signs, learn about life in this spectacular environment. Look for the endangered southern cassowary. Join a sea kayaking tour. The campground at Noah Beach makes a good base (bookings essential).
