Out & About in Port Douglas

Believe it or not, there’s more to Port Douglas than sea and sand, but you’ll likely spend lots of time splashing and sunning, so listen up! Four Mile Beach is the city’s claim to fame, and with good reason—size matters, and this beach is big. Walk to the long, blond stretch of sand from the city centre and follow the curve for…6.43km. Yay, math! Opal Reef and Agincourt Reef are both part of the Great Barrier and accessible from Port Douglas, so suit up—with your bathing suit, that is—and make some fine finned friends.

When you’re ready to mingle with land-lubbing locals, wander over to the picturesque St. Mary’s by the Sea chapel. This darling little Presbyterian church was built in 1914 and it’s a picture-perfect place to stop and admire the view. To live like a local, be sure to book Port Douglas boutique accommodation for at least a weekend visit, because the Sunday Market is a must-taste! Chow down on fresh fruit and pick out some colourful artwork to brighten your flat back home.
