Cape Tribulation, Far North Queensland
The Daintree Coast / Cape Tribulation
Where the rain forest meets the reef. To merely say this place
is beautiful is an understatement, an injustice to the Cape Tribulation
and all its friends and relatives. I will try to think of a better
word next time I go.
There is a special tranquillity about the Daintree that pictures
and words cannot describe. You have to spend some in the Daintree
to really appreciate it magical appeal.
Thanks to concerned locals Cape Tribulation ('Cape Trib') and the
Daintree is not on the power grid so you have to BYO (just kidding).
This mean most residents have their own power generator (Jenny)
often running off of alternative forms of energy such as solar power.
This all adds to the sense of community.
Many of the locals who are against large-scale development. Once
you have visited – you will be too.
Best of both worlds on the Daintree Coast. A two day tour
that takes in the best of the region!
