Wangetti Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The road from palm Cove to Port Douglas is about as close as you can get to the ocean without driving on the sand. Enjoy the view but drive carefully as you wind through the bends in the road (also don't swim...croc are about!). This was taken in January - the tropical rains come and go every few minutes.

The room was extremely clean and fresh. The staff were exceptionally helpful and pleasant. The buffet breakfast offered me what I needed with vegan, gluten-free options and the food was thoroughly delightful. I highly recommend this hotel for your Cairns stays.

You really don't have to share a beach with other people in Tropical North Queensland! Unless you want to of course. Just down from the famous Rex Lookout, Wangetti beach is an idyllic stretch of sand which you'll only have to share with a couple of other handgliders as they land after flying over the coast. www.cheskiesgaplife.com
