What is it that draws so many people to Port Douglas?
Could it be that this little portside village is sitting up in the far reaches of Tropical North Queensland far far away from the madding crowd? (Are we there yet?)
Could it be that crocodiles interact with the locals on Four Mile Beach; from time to time spurring the life guards into action to “close” the beach and erect their well-used crocodile warning signs? We are all, after all, quite in awe of these majestic creatures from the Cretaceous that are the apex predators of their watery worlds.
Could it be that no matter how cold it is “down south” you’ll always be warmly welcomed in Port Douglas with a tropical ambience?
Perhaps you just can’t resist the smell of the coffee shops - their wafting coffee bouquets luring you up from the deep south!!
