On the journey to Cape Tribulation, take some time to explore some of the untouched beaches along the coast. Witness the Rainforest meeting the reef as you take in the incredible coastline.
Arriving at Cape Tribulation, it’s time to tackle Jungle Surfing; a 1.5-hour trip through the canopy of the rainforest. Your feet don’t touch the ground, rather you fly through the trees on a series of flying fox zip-lines, stopping at 6 tree platforms to take in spectacular bird’s eye views over the treetops, down to cascading streams and out to the Great Barrier Reef.
For those not Jungle Surfing, enjoy exploring Cape Tribulation’s beaches and safe rainforest waterholes.
Next we head to lunch at a local restaurant, deep in the rainforest.
After Lunch, enjoy a refreshing swim in a safe rainforest river, or simply enjoy the relaxing surroundings.
