Palm Cove is part of the Northern Beaches area located 30 minutes north of Cairns, named for its iconic strip of palm trees lining the beach. The town exudes a secluded coastal village vibe where you will feel more than comfortable walking the colourful esplanade barefoot and opting for a sunset barbecue on the beach for dinner. For the foodies, however, there is no shortage of innovative dining options, including a beach club where you can dine with sand between your toes whilst serenaded by the local live music. While watersports and beach fun are aplenty, Palm Cove has also been dubbed the spa capital of Australia. With many spas offering treatments using native Australian ingredients, some even in open-air beachside pavilions, Palm Cove is the ultimate place to indulge and unwind. Palm Cove is also a central location to base yourself while exploring the wilderness of the Daintree Rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef.
Immersed in the northern frontier of Great Barrier Reef, this is the perfect snorkelling and sailing adventure for a conservation-minded visitor. Ideally suited to those who can swim and have a spirit of fun and adventure. Enjoy an inspiring full-day experience at the absolutely stunning Mackay Coral Cay on the Great Barrier Reef in the most sustainable way, including guided snorkelling and a glass-bottomed boat tour.
