Why it's worth checking out
Yule Point sits on the Captain Cook Highway between Cairns and Port Douglas in Tropical North Queensland. With 21 reviews behind its 4.4 rating, it's a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a lovely, scenic stretch of the tropical coast — a point with lovely water, mudflats, mangroves and open surrounds along the famous coastal drive, a genuine favourite for a pause, a photo, a fish or simply soaking up the Far North Queensland setting. It's a lovely, free stop.
Coastal spots in the tropical north have changing conditions, tides and seasonal considerations — including crocodile safety to be mindful of — so check current details and any safety advice before you go. Bring sun protection, water and follow local advice.
