Activities Abound: Remember to take the cable car up to the Atherton Tablelands for a unique look back into history at the town of Kuranda. On your trip up you will have a vista of the coast all the way from Palm Cove to Cairns. Especially amazing coming back down from Kuranda in the afternoon with the setting sun turning all the scenery an amazing color. While in Kuranda you can visit the many artist stores and indulge your senses with home made treats made locally. Visit the only chocolate factory in the area for a sweet sample.
Back in Palm Cove take a short stroll up the Esplanade to many award winning 5 star restaurants and after dinner shop in the unique boutiques along the way. Stroll along the meandering beach side paths or sit a spell on the many benches and take in the view or use the free electric BBQ's located along the ocean side park.
Indulge Your Senses: Sip espressos at the many delightful European style coffee shops and explore the stores of the wonderful artists who make this area their home.
It's a little like taking a short trip to Europe while still being able to see all the unique things Australia has to offer. Listen to the mixture of many different spoken languages of visitors from around the world who flock to this little slice of paradise to soak up the sun, sand and relax while eating amazing food and enjoying world class activities.
