Unforgettable Family Moments at Hartley's Crocodile Adventures
“Bought tickets to Hartley's Crocodile Adventures on Trip.com.”
📅 Itinerary Day1:travelled from Cairns up the coast to Port Douglas, stops along the way: · Palm Cove-really great vibey place. Great to walk all along the coast. Excellent cafes and shops · Hartleys Crocodile Farm- much better than expected great fun for people of all ages · Four mile beach and Yorkeys Knob -beautiful coastline Day2: an absolute must is Mossman Gorge. Absolutely stunning. The 2.7km hike is not hard but you really do need to have some level of fitness to do it. It is simply stunning however if you can only just get to see the rock pools 🏨 Accommodation - we stayed at the Mantra Inlet in Port Douglas. Good basic room and cheap but not recommended if you don’t like stairs. 🍴 Food Recommendations -don’t miss the Tin Shed. The food was excellent, great value with stunning views of the sunset 📌 Tips - we went up to The Daintree village but it was a waste of time. I would give it a miss

🦪 MELBOURNE, WHY CAN’T SYDNEY HAVE THIS?! 😭 @stopwhining_bar I found this cute little oyster bar in Melbourne’s Chinatown and I seriously can’t stop whining about it 😂 I Googled Stop Whining Seafood Wine Bar on Little Bourke Street because I wanted somewhere casual where I could just walk in, sit down and enjoy fresh seafood and oysters without the whole fancy restaurant experience. I tried their Shuckmaster’s Tasting Set with six different oysters from different regions 😍🦪 🌊 Ocean Breeze • Pacific, Streaky Bay SA 🦪 Mr Perfect Jr. • Pacific, Port Douglas SA 🦪 Nat Kelly • Pacific, Bruny Island TAS 🦪 Godmother • Pacific, St Helens TAS 🦪 Miss Helen • Pacific, Little Swanport TAS 🦪 Rockefeller • Rock oyster, Wonboyn NSW This is what I LOVE about Melbourne. You can wander through Chinatown or Queen Victoria Market and find little spots where you can stop, eat something fresh and just keep exploring. I really miss that proper market vibe in Sydney. The crowds, the fresh produce, the noise, people calling out and all the chaos 😂 It just has so much character and culture. And for my solo travellers, places like this are perfect. Sometimes sitting alone in a fancy restaurant can feel a little awkward 😂 but somewhere casual like this? Give me my oysters and I’m happy 🐷🦪 📍 Stop Whining Seafood Wine Bar, Little Bourke Street, Melbourne Chinatown @stopwhining_bar Oyster lovers, SAVE THIS for your next Melbourne trip! 🦪✈️ #MelbourneFood #MelbourneEats #MelbourneOysters
