Daintree Rainforest Tours & Cape Tribulation Visitor Information
The Daintree Rainforest is rich with cultural and natural splendor. The Kuku Yalariji people were the traditional owners of the land and the rainforest served as food, shelter and resources to these people. The roots of the Daintree Rainforest can be traced back to 135 million years ago and visiting the Daintree gives you a sense of what the world would have been like millions of years ago.
The top of the rainforest canopy extends 45 metres into the sky and the diversity of plants competing for the sun’s light is spectacular. Today, the Daintree rainforest has a pristine and unspoiled feel displaying natural habitats and ecosystems that are not found anywhere else in the world.
The ecological significance of this area is immense. The Daintree rainforest not only provides humans with the oxygen needed on a daily basis but contributes to a symbiotic relationship with the animals and insects that flourish in the area.
The Daintree rainforest contains 30% of frog, marsupial and reptile species, 65% of bat and butterfly species and 20% of bird species in Australia. Some unique animals that can be found in this region include cassowaries, Musky rat kangaroos, Ulysses butterflies, bandicoots, Sugar gliders and thousands more species.
The Estuarine crocodiles are of particular popularity in this region. There are several cruises on the Daintree River that give visitors an up close and personal experience with these primitive creatures.
Whether it is discovery, relaxation or adventure that you’re looking for, the Daintree rainforest offers a spectacular natural setting that is unique to this precious region. If you are travelling to the rainforest for exploration there are many wilderness walks that will take you on a journey through floral evolution. Cruise through the Daintree River and spot ‘Fat Albert’ and ‘Scar Face’, two huge Estuarine crocs soaking up the suns rays on the river bank. Charter a fishing boat and catch some of the most diverse fish species in the world.
Snorkel, scuba dive or sail the Great Barrier Reef or just chill out on the magnificent Cape Tribulation Beach and take in the breathtaking scenery.
