To take on the Queensland tropics in style, look no further than Port Douglas. One hour’s drive north of Cairns, this stylish beach town is a very popular holiday and destination wedding destination (with the price tag to match).
We visited Port Douglas on a day trip from Cairns with Discovery Tours Australia. Our tour guide drove us up to the perfect lookout point over the famous Four Mile Beach, surrounded by mountains and rainforest.

Afterwards, we went down to the water and St Mary’s By The Sea, a quaint chapel popular for weddings. I wasn’t in Port Douglas for very long and would love to spend a long weekend here by the water.
What’s the prettiest beach town you’ve visited?
