Cooktown is the gateway to one of Australia’s last frontiers – the untamed wilderness of Cape York Peninsula. Unspoilt, it lies on the shores of the Endeavour River, which flows into the Coral Sea. It is Australia’s closest town to the Great Barrier Reef and enjoys the sun-soaked days and warm sea breezes of the tropics all year round.
Founded in 1873, Cooktown was established as a booming seaport. It stands on the site where, in 1770, Captain James Cook spent 48 days repairing his damaged barque, ‘The Endeavour’. It is a haven for many land based activities, while off shore the diving, reef and deep sea fishing rate with the best in the world.
