We think palm cove is Cairns loveliest beach getaway. It’s quieter than port Douglas but more peaceful. Lots of great places to eat. Take a day trip and go for lunch, a walk on the beach, browse some shops and maybe have a massage. Only 30 minutes drive from Edgehill or catch the bus.

So much to do at Port Douglas- it’s a beautiful coastal drive, lots of cool shops and great cafes and restaurants. You Could easily spend a couple of nights there, but if you’ve only got time for a day trip, it’s only about an hours drive.
Sunday is a good day to visit as there’s a large market every Sunday morning.
