Planning a holiday in Port Douglas? The charming little town located in the very heart of North Queensland is an amazing place to explore, relax and eat! Here are 4 must do things during your stay!

The Famous Four Mile Beach

The very crowning jewel of Port Douglas, the Four Mile Beach is a great place to go swimming, have a picnic, play beach ball or simply lounge about with the crash of the waves lulling you to sleep. The stretch can also be easily accessed from many a family resort in Port Douglas including the likes of Oaks Lagoons.

Shop at Macrossan Street

Macrossan Street is lined with charming little boutiques, antique stores, art galleries and chic cafes simply waiting to be explored. It’s a lovely place to shop for jewellery, clothing and all sorts of other fashionable things!

Have Dinner at Chilli’s Pizza & Trattoria

Take advantage of the lovely balmy weather in Port Douglas and have dinner at Chilli’s Pizza & Trattoria. The quirky restaurant comes replete with outdoor picnic tables, twinkling festive lights, and cool music. The food is absolutely delicious, and options are available for gluten-free eaters and vegetarians.

Drive to Palu Cove

The Palu Cove is a 40-minute drive which is well worth the effort. Pack a picnic lunch along with a good book and cosy up in one of the hammocks strung among the palm trees. The calm waters in the cove are ideal for a cooling dip or a spot of paddle boarding.
