Day 64 Port Douglas to Palm Cove

On the way out of Port Douglas we decided to back track a little bit to Mossman Gorge. This was a beautiful river gorge full of boulders and a fairly strong stream. It was also a popular swimming location for backpackers.

Richie and Dad did a rainforest walking track while the girls stayed at the river. There was numerous big fig trees and some great little spots on the river and a small creek where we found some big jungle perch in a small pool.

The afternoon was getting away from us so it was time to move on and drop into Peter and Pauline's house to say goodbye (you can't say goodbye without a coffee, cold drinks,chocolate biscuits and a great view of Port Douglas).
Our last stop for the day was at Palm Cove. We stayed at a great little caravan park about 20 metres from the beach.
