Port Douglas by pugwashman
Lovely town on the sea from where you can take trips to the Barrier Reef. Some of the biggest Tour Operators are here, ie:Quicksilver, but don't rush through the town because it is well worth a visit in it's own right. The drive from Cairns itself is worth making the visit for as the road skims along the shore affording spectacular views of the coastline. There is also a 4 mile beach.
