St Mary's by the Sea is a lovely small white chapel located at the seaside near Dixie Street. According to the driver of my hostel, the chapel is very popular with 'to-be-married'-couples and you need to queue for at least 1 year if you wanna get married with your darling there.
WoW!
Trips to Cape Tribulation/Mossman Gorge/Daintree
by Anne12
There are a number tours you can do for these areas.
Along the main street of Port Douglas there are outlets that will book tours for you. There is also the Information Centre.
Before you decide to do a tour, think of the cost and then check out the car hire places. It might be less expensive to hire a car and do it yourself at your leisure.
I will be adding more info to my Mossman page and also Cape Trib page.
If you hire a car you can go as far as Capre Trib, then after this you need a 4x4.
Please don't go any further as it is dangerous and not worth the insurance bill.

Port Douglas is a small chic town an hours drive from the City of Cairns. Sitting on the edge of the coral sea it is surrounded by rain forest.
Port Douglas Australia was once a tiny fishing village. Today Port Douglas still maintains the look and feel of a picturesque township with an old fashioned charm. Shady, tree lined streets with an extensive choice of restaurants, art galleries, boutique shops and a "fun filled" Sunday Market. Port Douglas still can boast of having no traffic lights, no parking meters and no plans to intention to install them.
Port Douglas is the centre of everything adventurous. There are over 100 tour operators in Port Douglas departing to the Great Barrier Reef, the Daintree Rainforest, Bloomfield Falls, Mossman Gorge, the Atherton Tablelands or Cooktown by boat, 4-wheel drive or air conditioned coach.
