The Queensland / Far North region

Welcome to Queensland, Australia. The "Sunshine State". "Beautiful one day, perfect the next". With a climate ranging from subtropical in the south to tropical in the north, the beach and water based activities lure holiday makers from all over the world.

Tropical North Queensland has a year round warm climate. Spring and autumn bring average temperatures ranging from about 18 degrees celsius to 30 degrees celsius. Winter (June - September) is the peak tourist season with average temperatures from about 15 degrees celsius to 27 degrees celsius. Summer (December - March) is also known as the "green season" with average temperatures from about 21 degrees celsius to 30 degrees celsius.

The "green season" is when you can expect to experience an afternoon or evening tropical downpour. Its therefore the best season to see the rainforest, mountains and waterfalls at their best.

The Cairns / Port Douglas area

How do you spend a week or a month or more in paradise?

Port Douglas is the jewel in the crown of Tropical North Queensland. This five-star international destination is nestled between the dual World Heritage areas of the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest and with many other world class attractions and venues within easy reach, Port Douglas deserves plenty of time to explore and enjoy.

Why not start by watching the sun rise over beautiful Four Mile Beach or take a long romantic "stroll" at dusk on this world famous beach. Tour the nearby Mossman Gorge for a close-up view of the rainforest and the often raging waters of the Mossman River. Or explore the World Heritage Daintree Rainforest, the oldest rainforest on earth. See crocodiles in the wild on the Daintree River. Visit one or all of the many fantastic eco-tourist options in the rainforest itself. Experience living mangroves, the canopy tower, tropical fruit farms, even an ice-cream factory.

The Great Barrier Reef should be on the top of your "must do" list. There's no shortage of vessels ranging from small sailing boats to large, fast catamarans to take you there. You can swim, snorkel, dive, water ski or even experience the whales (in season). "Migaloo", an extremely rare white whale, often makes an appearance off Port Douglas in whale-watching season.

Visit the multi-award winning "Rainforest Habitat" Wildlife Sanctuary where you can have breakfast with the birds, lunch with the kangaroos or dinner with the Koalas. You can also view dangerous saltwater crocodiles close up but in complete safety.

What about some fishing? Take your pick, beach, rock, estuary, reef, blue-water, you name it, we've got it. There are charter boats big and small to take you where the action is, or you can just find a quiet wharf, beach, river or rock to sit on and ponder while chasing a feed. And don't forget about the famous "mud crab", a real delicacy in Port Douglas.

You can fly directly to Cairns International Airport (CNS) or transit from any capital city in Australia. There are also rail connections from the south (Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane) or cruise ships call into both Cairns and Port Douglas.

Port Douglas is approximately 70 kilometres (45 miles) north of Cairns. Rental cars, limousines and shuttle buses to Port Douglas are available at Cairns Airport and the rail and shipping terminals.

Rental cars, limousines, taxis, bike hire and local buses are available in Port Douglas.

All Port Douglas tour operators will pick you up and drop you off from Beachside for any tours you book. Therefore you may decide not to hire a car at Cairns and only hire a car in Port Douglas if and when you require it (although there can be shortages in peak season).

Please let me know if you would like more information on these.

A fantastic place to stay. We've just got home from our second holiday at Beachside Port Douglas. Everything is very well organised, everyone was so helpful. Great location close to the beach, restaurant and golf courses and lots of touristy trips nearby. The house is very spacious and has everything you could possibly need. We had a fantastic holiday withe friends in 2010 and loved it so much we brought our family including young grandchildren this year.
Sharon July 2011

Well we are home now safe n sound. We all had such a wonderful holiday. Beachside was perfect for our family in every way; we especially liked the BIG BATH TOWELS. If we ever head back we will be sure to stay with you again. Thanks for everything
Gemma, Gerard, Matilda & Ruby - September 2008

We had a great time, beautiful house really close to the beach. Christine was very helpful and welcoming. We had 11 people staying and it was very comfortable and affordable. We will love to stay there when we next visit Port Douglas.

Sharon January 2008

We loved the house and the garden. The location is great and the bus service is very handy. I found the kitchen very well equipped. The beach is very close and was lovely for cool evening walks. The house was good for children but you just have to keep an eye on younger children as there is a creek at the back.
