Camp Description
This
delightful park is located right on the beachfront and is surrounded by
beautiful palm trees and tranquil waters, with the stunning coastal ranges as a
backdrop. The park offers both powered and unpowered sites, and now you can
book unpowered sites as well. Please note that the area for unpowered sites can
be tight if the park is busy, especially for large caravans that are 20ft or
larger.
We took a short drive from Paronella Park to the north side of Cairns to a place that has always been on Kat's bucket list to stay at. It has the same name as Fiona's last name, so we just had to stay there.
As we headed north, we tried to arrange a trip on the Kuranda Train and Skyrail, but the website was not working. We decided to visit the office of Skyrail to find out why we couldn't book. The train was fully booked, which was the issue, but we were offered the chance to take the cable car up and back if we wanted to go immediately. So, we booked our tickets and did the Kuranda Skyrail Rail.
We enjoyed a cable car ride up over the hills, across the Baron Falls, and arrived in the Rainforest Village of Kuranda. We spent the afternoon wandering around the village and visiting the Kuranda Bird Sanctuary.
