Workation in Port Douglas: the essentials
Gold brought Port Douglas into being in the 1870s as a port for the Hodgkinson field, but the town's second life began with tourism in the 1980s. Today some 3,650 people live here, about 60 km north of Cairns, next to two World Heritage areas, the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest. Four Mile Beach, the restaurants on Macrossan Street and the Sunday market set a polished holiday tone, and Mossman Gorge is an easy outing. It is small enough to feel repetitive after a few weeks, and the wet season brings humidity, stinger nets and closures. Cairns Airport is about 55 km south.
