Port Douglas is a very prosperous port, here docked many yachts to the Great Barrier Reef, almost every passenger who went to visit the Great Barrier Reef will pass here to board, so it is very prosperous, business is also very developed, it is worth a walk.

    Port Douglas is a small destination in area only. The Port itself is not that big but provides a vast array of accomodation that would satisfy any budget. Port Douglas is out of the hustle and bustle of the main city of Cairns, but provides all amenities.Indeed, it can accomodate that intimate, quiet time out you have been craving for - or deliver an action packed, adrenalin filled holiday thrill seekers are looking for. Anything in between is catered for as well.We stayed during October, apparently reknowned for its winds. And yes, it was windy, but warm.We went to the Habitat and spent nearly a day eventhough we were Aussies and familiar with a lot of the wildlife it was still an intimate exposure to them and very interesting.We did the touristy thing and went out to the reef - hubby did 3 dives and I snorkelled. The Poseidon catered for each of our needs and gave good individual service. I would have been more nervous with a bigger operator.Our Rainforest tour with Tony's Tours was just great. Only 6 people so we heard everything and never felt like cattle being rustled through. Questions were answered and a lot of information and history was passed on. Loved eating at Port Douglas - (hey, I love eating anywhere!) which probably makes me a conossoir right!?You have to go to the Combined Services Club - as quoted 'million dollar views and nothing over $20.00.'The yacht club is pretty good too. But don't go past the good old pub in the middle of the main drag which served up the best steak and for the cheapest price. That's where the locals still go to eat.Our accomodation was great. We stayed at Freestyle where our hosts were just spot on with local knowledge without being obtrusive at all. Our unit was great and reasonably priced. And we knew that if we needed anything then Anne would be able to assist us.Port Douglas is warm - hot in summer - and you always need your sunscreen and hat!!!And always friendly and fun. Loved it!

    Port Douglas is a very beautiful island, isolated from the world, the scenery is very beautiful, there are dense mangroves, the surrounding sea is very clear, it is definitely a shallow water and hiking adventure place, this is New Zealand's famous resort, it is worth a visit.

    The sky in Douglas Harbor is like ink painting. It's so beautiful that it's hopeless. All the way to the most beautiful town, I love it. So-called facing the sea, spring is just like this. When Douglas Harbor goes to the Great Barrier Reef and whales come and go, the whole boat cheers.
