There
are numerous walking tracks from which to explore the beautiful
rainforest and coastline. These tracks range in length from 1.5km
to 7km and are suitable for all ages.
Mission
Beach is also the home of the rare and beautiful cassowary, a
flightless rainforest bird found only in the tropical rainforests.
Please take care when driving in the area and keep an eye out
for this endangered species.
There are some twenty tropical islands lazing
just off shore, including the resort islands of Dunk and Bedarra,
and fourteen kilometres of sandy beaches along the coast.
Mission
Beach has the closest access from anywhere in North Queensland
to the outer Great Barrier Reef. Daily trips to the reef from
Clump Point enable visitors to experience this natural wonder
of the world by glass bottom boat, snorkelling and scuba diving.
As well, gamefishing, sportfishing and reef
fishing are all available by charter, or better still bring your
own boat and make Mission Beach your base to explore this magical
fishing destination.
For the more adventurous there is white water
rafting on the nearby Tully River or how about tandem skydiving
from 10,000 feet onto Mission Beach.
