Queensland: Daintree beaches

We explored every beach from north of Cape Tribulation (Emmagen Beach), southwards through the Daintree. They are all beautiful, pristine, clean and deserted (or almost deserted). What is striking is that the rainforest stretches from the hills all the way down to the beach. There's a mixture of palms, ferns, eucalypts ... and mangroves, always mangroves. (And with mangroves come crocodiles and drat! mosquitoes.)







We swam at the last beach (Cow Bay) and chatted to the friendly locals, who arrived at the beach after work for a spot of fishing and dog walking. Honestly, I don't know where to start (or end) with these photographs. I have hundreds of photos of beautiful (different) beaches. So all I will say is: if you like beaches, this is a part of the world worth visiting.
