In the wet season this is a great waterfall! If it isn't wet season, then a drive to Cape Gloucester is a must for some secluded mainland beach time however if you do not have a vehicle and are interested in a good hike, check out the Honeyeater trail! Entrance is at the top of Kara Cres in Airlie, 9km steep return trip and the view is WORTH IT. Tip ** try to do it in the morning before it gets too hot and take water!

Getting Around
Your closest bus stop is at the end of the street and to the right, just where the little shops finish. A bus can take you in either direction to Airlie or back out of town to the airport. It is a lovely walk into Airlie via the boardwalk, perhaps 40mins briskly or an hour taking your time (however there are several places along the way to stop for a drink or a snack - recommended!).
