The room was comfortable and clean, with TV, and a fridge. The property is beautiful, nestled in the rainforest with countless birds and green mountains behind. He pointed out his flowering jade plant with blossoms like I've never seen. Thank you Greg!"

"Cape Trib beach house gives you the opportunity to have a secluded bit of rainforest and beach away from the busier parts of the Daintree. The restaurant is good, portions are large. You can sit on an idyllic beach with just a couple of others hearing and seeing the rainforest animals as waves lap upon the beach. We saw Cassowary at the property twice in our 3 day stay. You can’t go in the water, but that is true of all FNQ. This is not a luxury property but maybe a more authentic feel, the rooms have the basic necessities and are clean and comfortable. The property is well located for Daintree activities, we did both the horse riding and ziplining, both of which were excellent and can be organised by the staff."

When is the best time to go to Cape Tribulation?
The best time to visit Cape Tribulation is during the dry season, which runs from May to November.During these months, you'll experience consistently warm, sunny days with lower humidity. This makes exploring the Daintree Rainforest and enjoying the beaches much more comfortable. The daytime temperatures typically range from 20 to 29 degrees Celsius, which is superb for outdoor activities like guided rainforest walks, snorkelling, or simply relaxing by the coast.The dry season is also the best time for wildlife spotting. Many of the unique creatures of the Daintree, such as cassowaries and various bird species, are more active and visible. The calmer waters during this period are also ideal for reef trips, offering excellent visibility for snorkelling and diving on the Great Barrier Reef.While the wet season (December to April) brings lush greenery and dramatic thunderstorms, it also means higher humidity, more rain, and the presence of marine stingers in the ocean, which restricts swimming to netted areas or stinger suits.
