About The Birding Area - (Slide show above).
Mossman is an easy 1 hour drive north of Cairns International Airport along the very scenic Captain Cook Highway.
The sugar town of Mossman lies in the shadow of the Great Dividing Range and, uniquely, within an hours travel we have 8 distinct habitats including lowland rainforest, mudflats, mangroves, saltmarsh, upland rainforest, wetland, grassland, and the much drier savannah woodland. That's the reason that we chose Mossman as our base, an ideal starting point for serious bird watching.
Immediately to the north is the Daintree River, and close by is Port Douglas for Great Barrier Reef cruises, and accommodation. In the hinterland is Julatten, well known to visiting birders, and to the west, the Mitchell River area is where we locate many inland species.
