Today we spent the day north of Cairns in the Daintree Rainforest, a World Heritage site. We started the trip by taking a short crocodile cruise on the Daintree River, where we saw a 12 foot crocodile. We then headed further into the rainforest for some hiking through the rainforest and a mangrove forest. We ate lunch at Cape Tribulation, which has a beautiful beach. On the way back to Cairns, we stopped at several lookout points, Port Douglas, and Mossman Gorge. Mossman Gorge is a sacred site for the local Aborigines; there are rounded boulders everywhere, and it is a popular swimming destination.
