Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Kurrimine Beach National Park adventure.
This remote section of Wet Tropics rainforest can only be viewed from the sea.
Lush bands of rainforest and mangroves line the sandy shores of Kurrimine Beach in this remote national park—part of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Wet Tropics. There’s no camping or public access to Kurrimine Beach National Park, but campers have options in Kurrimine Beach or Mission Beach to the south. Head down to the beach to swim and snorkel on the fringe of the Great Barrier Reef, or take a boat cruise to admire the coastal rainforest from the water. For a taste of the park’s natural wonders, take a stroll through the nearby Kurrimine Beach Conservation Park, a popular spot for bird-watching.
Temperatures are hot year-round at Kurrimine Beach, and there are distinct wet and dry seasons. The dry, cooler weather from May through November makes it the most pleasant time for exploring, and daytime temperatures often reach 26°C even in mid-winter. If you visit during the wet season (December through April), prepare for high humidity, temperatures above 30°C, and frequent downpours.
