Fig Tree Forest

Incredible views at the lighthouse

Locals will know about this charming lighthouse but I bet there are many visitors out there who didn’t know Port Douglas had this landmark in its possession.

Most special about the lighthouse are the incredible views over the Coral Sea. On a good day the water is clear blue and you might even see some turtles swimming past.

And aren’t lighthouses always photogenic?
