It is a very nice small town with lots of places to visit nearby. A four-wheel drive would be a better option to reach some locations, like Elim Beach with its coloured sands. The esplanade is amazing both at sunrise and sunset. Botanical Garden and Grassy Hill are other places to visit.

My advice would be to hire a car in Cairns and drive the 3.5 hours to Cooktown. We walked, but were restricted by the town limits. Within a 75km radius of Cooktown you are able to access 'the bigger picture' of Cooktown.

Cooktown is a beautiful town with a lot of history. The museums are very interesting and there is a good choice of places to eat. Shipwreck was a great restaurant/ cafe with friendly staff and great food.

Wonderful scenic location with excellent historical sites well mapped out. A must to feel the vibes and history in the foundation place of Australia. A great feel about the community who seem to get on fabulously. A must visit of 3 days or longer

The botanic gardens are a must.

The botanic gardens are a must. The separately themed gardens are well chosen. The James Cook museum is very interesting. If you don't want to go on a cruise or go fishing there's not much to do.

Very nice place museum was overpriced for a bit of captain cook info and the damn wind never stops but nice lunch at lawn bowls club in main street was very easy nice and tasty. Plenty of things to see all on main street so easy parking and walking track along waters edge. Waterpark and Music ship for the younger ones or ones that want to be young again.

Gecko House was fantastic, Diana was a wonderful host, very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The room was clean and had everything we needed, the communal area is great, good facilities to hang out, cook your own meals, have a few drinks etc. We were very impressed, and the price was very reasonable. We look forward to returning to Cooktown & will definitely stay here again. Thanks Gecko House for a great stay :)

We knew that we booked a $120 unit and not $350 unit. Ie expected it to be as it was with no complaints. The manager was very helpful for our needs and we appreciated it. The kitchen was amazing ti do your own meal. Was not expecting that. So that made the whole 1n so cheap to go to Cooktown. Lovely garden room area.

location was very convenient! I loved that it was a serene place but only a few meters away from the hub of Cooktown. Sunset from the balcony was always a treat each night. Lek (Pranom) is a most caring and thoughtful host, she made me feel so welcomed and was so hospitable

Smart decor, very clean and comfortable, well resourced with everything our group of 6 needed for a great stay in Cooktown. Central location, one block walk to historic town Main Street. Relaxing view of Endeavour River from the balcony. Tropical vibe. Mangoes too!

Location was stunning and having the pole lodges in the rainforest was gorgeous. So close to Cooktown with the luxury of seeming like a world away.
