Stinger Season Nearly Over

Its Mothers Day on Sunday and its usually around this time of year that the stinger season ends.

The beautiful winter weather and the warm tropical waters. Where else would you want to be other than magical Mission Beach this winter??

How big is Australia?

One thing I have noticed with our overseas visitors to Mission Beach is that they are not really aware of how big Australia is. This means when they are planning their holiday they sometimes get caught out by the distance they need to travel from one place to the other, and end up missing out. Visit the Mission Beach Information Station and we will help you schedule your stops and tours so you don't miss out on anything!

Coral Sea Kayaking

Come and enjoy Dunk Island as nature intended. Sea Kayaking is an active, fun and eco-friendly way to explore the tropical waters. Glide silently over the fringing reef, spotting turtles and rays. Spend the day relaxing on a sandy beach, take a rainforest walk or go for a snorkel. Learn about the island, reef ecology and aboriginal and pioneering history from your friendly and knowledgeable local guide. Extended trips such as 3 day Tropical Island Kayak and 5 & 7 day Hinchinbrook Is & Family Is. trips as available. Mission Beach Information Station can help you book these tours.

Great Barrier Reef

There are two companies that visit the Great Barrier Reef from Mission Beach. If you would like to take advantage of the lovely weather we are enjoying here at the moment then let us know and we can help you book a trip with Calypso or Quick Cat. You can snorkel, scuba dive or even enjoy a glass bottom viewing boat, sounds just lovely doesn't it.

Tropic Wings Tours

I have just gotten back to Mission Beach after doing a fantastic trip with Tropic Wings. A Cairns based company that do tours of the Atherton Tablelands, Kuranda, Cape Tribulation, Port Douglas, Green Island. We did the Kuranda Railway and Skyrail tour.The time inbetween was spent in Kuranda visiting the Butterfly Farm, the quirky village of Kuranda with its markets and great eating spots. We spent 3 hours at Rainforestation. What a fabulous place. Lunch was deeeeelicious and the Army Duck tour was certianly something different and memorable.

The sun is shining again

If your in Mission Beach this weekend then your lucky enough to be enjoying the sunshine as I am. It's a great day to go walking through the rainforest or along the beach, a bit of a dip in the stinger nets ( yes they are still in ), or even jump in a kayak and go for a paddle. If you want any help to decide what to do come and see us at the Mission Beach Information Station.
