Directions, How to get
there
From Cairns Airport: Head north towards Port Douglas and Mossman,
drive past the Port Douglas and turn right through the township of
Mossman. After passing Mossman (30 km), turn right towards the
Daintree River ferry crossing (a large sign indicates turn). Do not
drive straight ahead, as this will lead to Daintree village. Join
the vehicle ferry (approximately AUD 20 return) as directed by
ferry staff. After the ferry crossing is the Daintree National
Park. The road here is windy and dark in places due to rainforest
canopies, so drive slowly and with care. The resort is located
approximately a 45-minute drive from the ferry crossing.
