Innot Hot Springs

On Tuesday we enjoyed a leisurely drive from Mission Beach to Innot Hot Springs, with a stop at the The Falls Teahouse in Milla Milla for a lovely lunch. We spent lots of time in the thermal pools at the Innot Hot Springs Holiday Village, although we didn't venture out to dig our own hole in the sand to enjoy the springs out in the creek. Save that for next time! I can recommend this as a great mini break, there are motel and 1 bedroom units, powered and unpowered camping available as well as Day Guest entry to the pools.

We needed the rain

It's lovely to drive around Mission Beach and see the green lawns again, we certainly needed the rain we have had over the last week or so. A walk in the rainforest would be a great idea right now, if your a visitor or even a local get out there and enjoy the local walks. But if you would like to do something a little bit more adventurous then come in and see us at the Mission Beach Information Station.
