Tropical Reef & Rainforest

On arrival at Cairns Airport, make you own way to Port Douglas. The rest of the day is at leisure.

Join a Kubirri Warra clan member on an authentic coastal adventure across the beach, mudflats, and mangroves of their ancestral fishing grounds. Learn about traditional bush medicines and foods and try your hand at throwing a traditional fishing spear! Continue to Mossman Gorge, stroll along trails and elevated boardwalks through the World Heritage Listed rainforest as your driver guide shares stories and insights.

Afterwards, enjoy a delicious lunch infused with bush flavours served in the Mayi Cafe at the Mossman Gorge Cultural Centre overlooking the tropical rainforest's edge. Then, visit Janbal Gallery for an immersive art experience with renowned Aboriginal artist Brian 'Binna' Swindley. Explore how Dreamtime stories about animals, the environment, and language are expressed through cultural art. Binna will personally guide you through his painting techniques as you create your own small canvas to take home.

Explore Agincourt Reef, at the very outer edge of the Barrier Reef. Here, special reefs known as ‘ribbons' run parallel to the Continental Shelf. Adjacent to the Coral Sea trench, these ribbon reefs are recognised as the most pristine eco-systems in the reef's environment. Clear water provides the best possible underwater visibility, encourages rich coral growth and supports spectacular marine life. Choose to dive, snorkel, or stay dry and explore the stunning reef from the comfort of a semi-sub, just one meter underwater. Lunch and morning and afternoon tea on board are included.

Your Short Break concludes this morning after breakfast. Take advantage of our add-ons and pre-book your transfer to Cairns Airport (flights anytime).
