Photo Gallery: Beaches & Waterfalls Around Cairns

Posted on January 21, 2023February 24, 2023

Here are some additional photos of the beaches and waterfalls around Cairns.

View of the northern beaches from Flagstaff Hill. Port Douglas

Palm Cove Beach
There are many hotels and restaurants along the beach front in Palm Cove.
A sign listing all the different stinging jellyfish one may encounter in these waters.
There are first aid treatment kits for jellyfish stings at intervals along the way. The kits consist of a bottle of vinegar and instructions.
Not just stingers, but crocodiles are a possible hazard here.

Map showing the trails around Flagstaff Hill. We were at the lookout on top. There is a trail down to the beach trail from there.
I just liked the name of this shop in Cairns, Archie the Bear Collaborating with The Hungry Hummingbird Cake Shop.
Etty Beach, where cassowaries sometimes hang out.
The jungle meets the shore at Etty Beach.
Juxtaposing a seniors crossing and a cassowary warning struck me as funny. Near Etty Bay Beach.
The Boulders near the town of Babinda.
The tropical rainforest has much interesting flora and fauna. I don’t know what these large green berries are but they looked a bit like olives.
Wild stinkhorn mushrooms at The Boulders
