Palm Cove is one of the most beautiful holiday destinations on Queensland’s tropical coast. It is truly an idyllic setting with a beautiful palm tree lined esplanade and modern resorts overlooking the beautiful beach. The holiday atmosphere here is palpable with alfresco restaurants and holiday makers sailing and swimming along the waterfront. Most of the best resorts here are right on the beachfront and many of these have apartments that command special views over the turquoise waters of the Coral Sea. Palm Cove is close to Cairns and it is less than twenty minutes drive from Cairns international airport to Palm Cove itself. There is always plenty to entertain you with organized tours coming and going to local beauty sports and attractions or you could play a round of golf on one of the beautiful local courses. Cairns and Port Douglas cruises both provide acce3ss to the Great Barrier Reef which lies close to the coastline off Palm Cove.
Palm Cove is the ideal north Queensland accommodation base. It is so conveniently located for those who want to tour out into the hinterland and see all of the fantastic attractions and activities that this region has to offer. Inland is the beautiful Atherton tablelands region with its lava tubes, caves, lakes and rainforests. Man made attractions like the Skyrail are located close to Palm Cove and this gondola system is suspended above the rainforest and travel up the mountains to the picturesque village of Kuranda which lies at the summit. Next to the Skyrail departure station at the Palm Cove end is the Tjapukai Aboriginal display, where you can learn about the local Aboriginal people, study their culture and their lifestyle and history. To the north of Palm Cove is the magnificent coastal scenic road to Port Douglas which hugs the shoreline almost all the way and provides dozens of panoramic vistas over the Coral Sea. This road also leads to the Mossman region, the beautiful Mossman Gorge and then onto the Daintree rainforest region and Cape Tribulation. If you are looking for a beautiful beachside resort town to base yourself for a holiday in North Queensland, then consider a Palm Cove resort for an extended stay.
