REX SMEAL PARK
Port Douglas and the Daintree, where two World Heritage-listed wonders collide.
Rex Smeal Park is located on the peninsula of Port Douglas and is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike to take in the daily sunset. With views of the rainforest-clad Daintree mountain ranges, the Coral Sea, Low Isles, Snapper Isles and the inlet, it's the perfect place to pull up a picnic chair and bring along an esky filled with cold drinks and perhaps a few prawns from the local seafood shop. Watch the reef boats come in from a day exploring the Great Barrier Reef, the yachts heading out for a sunset sail and enjoy the fresh, tropical air under the coconut trees. The kids will even enjoy playing on the playground, or kicking a ball around before bedtime beckons.
A change overcomes you when you turn off the highway. It’s the loosening of shoulders, deeper breathing, and appreciation of nature in its technicolour beauty. Welcome to your launchpad to the Great Barrier Reef; the entryway to the Daintree Rainforest and Cape Tribulation. Where you can swim in Mossman Gorge, spot wild Daintree River crocodiles, or snorkel Low Isles and the outer reef.

EVENTS
For a laid-back beachside village, Port Douglas certainly knows how to party.
You don’t need a reason to want to visit Port Douglas and Daintree, but when you can dance under the stars at a waterfront festival, feast on fresh produce under the palms with celebrity chefs or nail a PB on your MTB, experiencing one of our legendary events will take your holiday to the next level.
With restrictions in place for public gatherings due to the Covid-19 global pandemic, many events have been postponed for 2020. But the good news is that most are in full-post-pandemic-planning-mode and dates are being set for 2021. Please check with event organisers for further details and we hope to be welcoming you to Port Douglas at one of our events soon!
Tourism Port Douglas Daintree acknowledges the custodianship of the Daintree Rainforest and Great Barrier Reef by the local Kuku Yalanji and Yirraganydji people whose rich cultures, heritage values, enduring connections and shared efforts protect our natural assets for future generations, and we pay our respect to elders past, present and emerging.
