Four Mile Beach

Reviewed By PaulBartleyW - Lichfield, United Kingdom

We stayed at The Peninsula Boutique Hotel, at the far end of this awesomely serene Beach (just off Main Street, at the town end). The hotel, sits back but next to the beach and is ideally scenically located for the beach. Four Mile Beach is a Stunning view to see & a pleasure to explore.. Its wide; clean and the sand is not grainy underfoot.. Yes, there can sometimes be jellyfish in the water - BUT, you can swim in the safe / secure netted area (at the one end of the beach), snorkel & see the sea life very safely.. There’s also a lifeguard here, should you get into distress - again, adding to the safety of this lovely beach.. Additionally, you can cycle down this beach easily and safely - as well as enjoying a gentle stroll???? Just, don’t forget the sunscreen - whatever your doing on the beach????

Make sure you go out to the Agincourt Reef and experience snorkelling or scuba diving on one of the treasures on this planet. I would recommend Silversonic for your experience.

Very posh town Port Douglas. Marina is very nice. When we went most of the businesses were closed until April. Nice drive to get to, very clean, lots of plam trees and free parking space, which is amazing, because we had to pay every other port we parked
