Best things to do in the Daintree map

Before we get started on all the great things to do and see in the Daintree, check out the map below to help plan your itinerary. 

I recommend you make a short list of all the things you want to do and see in the Daintree and then use this map to plan your day to day itinerary so you’re not travelling all over town.

Best things to do in the Daintree

Below, we cover the most popular things to do and places to visit in the Daintree. 

1. Mossman Gorge

Visiting Mossman Gorge is one of my favourite places to visit in the Daintree. The moment you step into the rainforest, you can feel the tranquillity and natural beauty that surrounds you. 

Access to the gorge commences at the Mossman Gorge Centre.  The gorge is about 2km from the centre, and while you can walk, it isn’t recommended as it is narrow and potentially dangerous. Fortunately, a shuttle bus frequently takes you from the Centre to the Gorge. 

The boardwalks and walking trails here are perfect for all fitness levels and offer a chance to explore the lush rainforest up close. Most of the walks take no more than 10 minutes and are super easy. One of the highlights is the suspension bridge, which provides a stunning view of the gorge below.

I highly recommend joining one of the guided Dreamtime Walks. These tours are led by Indigenous guides from the local Kuku Yalanji community. They share fascinating insights into their culture, stories, and the significance of the rainforest. Plus, you get to see some hidden spots that you might miss on your own.

The crystal-clear waters of the Mossman River are incredibly inviting, especially on a hot day. There are several safe swimming spots where you can take a refreshing dip. Just be mindful of the current and always swim in the designated areas.

After exploring the gorge, you can visit the Mossman Gorge Centre, which has a great café and a gallery showcasing local Indigenous art. It’s a good spot to relax and enjoy some refreshments before heading back.

If you don’t have a vehicle, you can book a tour from Cairns or Port Douglas.

2. Daintree River Cruise

Taking a Daintree River Cruise is an unforgettable experience. The cruise is a fantastic way to see the local wildlife, especially the saltwater crocodiles that bask along the riverbanks. Knowledgeable guides provide insights into the ecosystem and its inhabitants.

The guides will point out other wildlife, such as tree snakes and butterflies, as well as a variety of birds, including kingfishers and egrets. The boats are designed to get quite close to the wildlife without disturbing them, so you should be able to get some great photos.

I’ve done a few of these cruises now and have always been lucky enough to see a few big saltwater crocodiles.  I just love seeing these magnificent beasts in the wild, and I highly recommend taking one of these cruises while in town.

There are a range of cruise operators along the Daintree with most offering several departure times a day. Cruises usually last for one to two hours and cost around $30 to $40 per person.
