Port Douglas is situated on a peninsula of Australia, bordered by the beautiful Four Mile Beach along one coast and a marina on the natural harbor on the other coast. The town was founded in the 1800s when gold was discovered in the area. After it was almost completely destroyed by a cyclone in 1911, the town slowly grew until the mid-1980s when it was developed as a resort town. Now it is a prime vacation area with fine restaurants, world-class shops and excellent affordable Port Douglas hotels.
The Great Barrier Reef is less than 10 miles out from Port Douglas, making the town the closest gateway to the reef. Comprised of approximately 2600 individual reefs, the Great Barrier Reef stretches along the outer edge of the Australian continental shelf. It is the home of more than 400 types of colorful coral, in addition to many species of fish, clams and other sea creatures.
Port Douglas is also located near Cape Tribulation Rainforest and Daintree, an old logging village.
