Douglas Shire

Douglas Shire is best known in Australia for the Daintree Rainforest, part of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area. On Queensland’s far north coast, the shire extends from the Coral Sea and the resort town of Port Douglas to the Daintree River and forested inland ranges. The Great Barrier Reef lies offshore, while Mossman Gorge in Daintree National Park is known for its river, rainforest walks and cultural connections to the Eastern Kuku Yalanji, the Traditional Owners of this country. Sugar-cane fields around Mossman add another distinctly local layer to the coastal plain. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Douglas Shire.
