Where are the unique attractions in Palm Cove?
Exploring around Palm Cove
The main draw for visitors to Palm Cove is the perennially beautiful Great Barrier Reef. There are numerous ways to explore the reef. While diving is the most popular way to discover the magical underwater world, it's not to everyone's liking. Snorkelling is better suited for younger children and those who are restricted from diving and a glass-bottomed boat tour offers a relaxing way to catch a glimpse of reef's vibrant coral and fish.
Back on terra firma there are acres of verdant rainforest waiting to be explored. The Daintree Rainforest has lush canopies populated with a wide variety of wild animals and is situated just a short drive from hotels located in Palm Cove. Daintree is best explored on an organised tour and many operate in the local area with Tropical Journeys recommended by the local tourism authority. To witness the forests from above, take a ride on the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway. Capture spectacular views of the area as you glide through the air just metres above the jungle canopy.
