Queensland' s Scenic Splendours
Australian Women’s Weekly NZ|May 2018

With its amazing seascapes, World Heritage sites and lip-smacking food trails, Tropical North Queensland has it all and is perfect for a short break

Queensland' s Scenic Splendours

World Heritage sites on the left, World Heritage attractions on the right. Scenic drives don’t get much better than this.

The 67km stretch between Cairns and Port Douglas is nothing short of spectacular. On one side of the road there’s that famous icon, the Great Barrier Reef, in all its glory, and on the other side you will see the Wet Tropics Rainforest, where waterfalls tumble and plants and trees thrive. The dramatic, photogenic roadway twists and turns, enticing visitors to stop and explore, whether it’s a barefoot ramble along a pristine beach, a dip in the blue sea – where you may well spot dolphins – or pulling into laid-back seaside villages to discover gourmet gems.
