The Haven
Cockatoo Hill Retreat is perfectly positioned in the middle of the rainforest, you are mid-way between Cape Tribulation and civilisation in Port Douglas. Crossing the Daintree River by car-ferry is like stepping back in time. Your days can be spent beach-combing drift wood, or wandering naked along a isolated tropical beach. Combine your holiday with beach-life, rainforest emersion, swimming, reading and relaxing. When said and done, take a charter boat and go dive the Great Barrier Reef.
