Cape Tribulation is a beautiful place where a World Heritage Rain Forest meets the Great Barrier Reef. It’s located in the Daintree Rain Forest, 140km north of Cairns. There are many tourist activities to do there, but the best part is just being in the rain forest. You should be careful of snakes, crocodiles, spiders, and jellyfish in the area though. There are caution signs for crocodiles and stingers. During certain months of the year, there are jellyfish in the water. Some of them even wash up on shore, so you have to watch your step where you go. You can even take a trip out to some of the surrounding reefs where you can go snorkeling. The hotels and accommodation at Cape Tribulation are also amazing. If you are young and want to meet some backpackers, one place in particular you might want to check out is the Cape Trib Beach House Resort. At this resort, you can stay in a cabin 20m from the beach. All you have to do is walk out your door and you are there. Once you get out of the rainforest, you can walk along the palm tree covered beach until you reach Cape Tribulation. All you can do is look out and enjoy the view.

Australia’s coastlines are truly amazing and the outback is spectacular. There are so many things to see and do in Australia, you just need to know where to begin. If you aren’t from Australia, then you can only enter the country from a few different cities. There are a number of different ways to travel in Australia, it just takes a long time if you don’t fly. Backpackers and tour groups are popular in all of the tourist areas. You can stay the night at a very cheap price, meet some people from around the world, and move on to the next major tourist attraction just by going with the flow. Local Australians are very nice people who have a laid back attitude. There are only a handful of major cities in Australia, but everywhere you go seems like a unique experience. The landscape is beautiful, but you still have to be careful of things you can’t always see. I mean, you should always look where you step, swim, and stick you hands if you aren’t used to the area. Some of the most deadly snakes, spiders, jellyfish, and sharks live in Australia, so be careful because you have been warned.
