25.01.2022 Thought of the day.

25.01.2022 Sunsets, coffee and friendly locals - what more could you want?

24.01.2022 Ah the serenity!

24.01.2022 GREAT BARRIER REEF FUN FACTS The Great Barrier Reef is the only living structure in the world that can be seen from space. We're not sure what the Martians think of it!

24.01.2022 GREAT BARRIER REEF FUN FACTS More than 400 (or one-third) of the world's coral species can be found in the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area

23.01.2022 Beach everytime! This beautiful little island is just across the road from the beach house.

22.01.2022 GREAT BARRIER REEF FUN FACTS The reef is a bustling underwater metropolis home to more than 1500 species of fish, 215 species of birds, more than 3000 species of molluscs (shells), six of the world's seven species of marine turtles, 30 species of whales and dolphins, and one of the world's most important dugong populations.

22.01.2022 GREAT BARRIER REEF FUN FACTS At 8000-years-old, the thin layer of living coral that makes up the Great Barrier Reef is a spring chicken compared to the 500,000-year old dead coral and algae layers that lie beneath.

21.01.2022 GREAT BARRIER REEF FUN FACTS Apart from climate change and human impact, the reef's worst natural predator is the crown-of-thorns starfish. The unpopular kid of the playground is notorious for stripping reefs of nearly all living coral. Fortunately, new corals can are generally able to re-grow after an outbreak.

21.01.2022 Did you see us on Today?

19.01.2022 Amazing view of Thornton Beach.

18.01.2022 GREAT BARRIER REEF FUN FACTS Come November, the coral will be getting busy during spawning season also known as sex on the reef. Timing of the mass release is linked to water temperature and phases of the moon.

11.01.2022 GREAT BARRIER REEF FUN FACTS Hard coral grows up to 1.5cm per year and is the backbone of the reef, growing and constantly adapting to the environment around it.

11.01.2022 A special wish for Monday morning. CJ's Cafe across the road from the Beach House does the best coffee in the Daintree!

09.01.2022 What our guests say about us... A magical place right in the heart of Daintree. Cec's beach house is immaculate with everything you could need. Great location, back patio looks into the mountains, with the beach just across the road to the front. Cec also owns CJ's Bar and Cafe, right before the beach entrance - where we ate breakfast and lunch. Great food and coffee! Cec and Bernie went above and beyond and truly made our time there special. We even booked our croc cruise through them. Thank you so much for everything - a trip we'll never forget. Thanks Joaquin all the way from San Jose in CA.

07.01.2022 Whoo hooo - free Daintree ferry!

02.01.2022 Today is World Smile Day Smiling is infectious, you catch it like the flu, When someone smiled at me today,... I started smiling too. I passed around the corner and someone saw my grin. When he smiled I realized I'd passed it on to him. I thought about that smile, then I realized its worth. A single smile, just like mine could travel round the earth. So, if you feel a smile begin, don't leave it undetected. Let's start an epidemic quick, and get the world infected!

01.01.2022 GREAT BARRIER REEF FUN FACTS In 2012 Google launched the very first underwater Street View on the Great Barrier Reef. The Underwater Earth project uses data and imagery from the ground-breaking Catlin Seaview Survey project a series of expeditions aiming to explore and survey the health of coral reefs worldwide so you can spy on the antics of the reef's inhabitants. It's no Big Brother UpLate, but interesting nonetheless. https://buff.ly/2oGZ9Kt
