Cooktown, Australia


Embraced by UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as the Great Barrier Reef and Queensland’s tropical rainforests, Cooktown is known as the gateway to Australia’s spectacular wilderness. You may catch a glimpse of a crocodile on a river cruise, and native blooms will decorate your stroll through the Botanic Gardens. At the James Cook Museum, learn about the history of this important township where Captain Cook spent seven weeks repairing his vessel, and then go fishing with the locals at Fisherman’s Wharf.
