Port Douglas is less than an hour's drive from Cairns on one of Australia's most picturesque coastal roads. With golden beaches and some of the most exclusive resorts in tropical north Queensland, Port Douglas, before a quiet fishing village, is sophisticated yet relaxed, and the perfect place to get away and unwind. Stroll Macrossan Street, the center of the village and enjoy the variety of elegant restaurants, bars, cafes, boutiques, bookshops and galleries. Take advantage of shopping at designer stores or indulge in one of the daytime luxury spas. At one end of Macrossan Street, you will find the magnificent Four Mile Beach lined with palm trees, which is a spectacular place to enjoy the sunset. Parque Anzac is at the other end of the street, where is the picturesque chapel of Santa María del Mar and where weekly markets are held every Sunday. Port Douglas also offers family holidays with fun and adventure. Learn to snorkel, snorkel, jet ski, water-ski or kayak to deserted beaches. Cruises to the Great Barrier Reef leave Mirage Marina every day to visit places that are considered among the best and most immaculate of the reef. Visit Low Isles on a few days' ride on a luxury sailing yacht to the further reefs. Take in the wonderful scenery by helicopter or take a panoramic flight by seaplane.
