A Cape York trip or tour will see you transported to an untamed wilderness on the mainland’s border nudging the Torres Strait. The Cape York Peninsula, the farthest northern tip of Queensland.
It is the largest unspoiled wilderness in the country’s north where you’ll discover rugged national parks, pristine waterways and secluded beaches.
The luscious wetlands and lack of development has proven a haven for native flora and fauna. Keep an eye out for the likes of jabirus, brolgas, red palm cockatoos, and the rather elusive tree kangaroos.
If you’re a keen fisherman, the whole peninsula is full of fantastic fishing spots, and some of Australia’s most famous game fish like barramundi are plentiful.
A Cape York day trip as part of your overall tour will leave you exhilarated.
