Cassowary Coast

The Cassowary Coast offers a relaxed, outdoor lifestyle with essential services readily available. The perfect area to raise a family, enjoy a lifestyle featuring a wide range of sports and activities or retire amongst beautiful surroundings.

The Cassowary Coast Region was named after the tall, flightless bird which inhabits the area. From Innisfail in the north, through Tully and Mission Beach, to Cardwell in the south, this area is one of the wettest and greenest in Australia.

The high rainfall and resulting humidity mean lush tropical forests and plentiful streams. The area abounds in natural beauty and is home to two world heritage areas - the Wet Tropics Rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef.

With the closest mainland access to the Great Barrier Reef and numerous offshore islands, the region provides a true taste of the tropics.
