Dear Port Douglas VIP member,
Wow! What a month we’ve had. Port Douglas has been back to its vibrant and bustling self as shuttle bus loads of people arrived to spend their school holidays up in paradise.
We’ve also seen some of our most popular annual visitors stop by with many on tours to the Great Barrier Reef greeted by some migrating whales! At this time of year we see both Dwarf Minke Whales and Humpback Whales as they migrate up and down the East Coast.
Some big names in the food world are set to join us here in paradise next week for the annual Taste Port Douglas, which you can read all about or buy yourself a ticket to below.
We’ve also left you some current hotel deals and a few reads to help prepare you (or entice you) for your next trip.
As always, don’t forget to check if you were this month’s lucky winner of our Port Douglas getaway giveaway! Remember, if it’s not your name at the bottom of the email this month, don’t despair because we’ll be drawing it again in August! (and September and October and November…)
Until then,
Sunny regards,
Port Douglas Travel Planner + Magazine
