What should I pack for my holiday?
Tropical north Queensland enjoys a warm
climate all year round, so we recommend
you pack comfortable lightweight clothing
for day and evening. All restaurants in
Palm Cove have a very relaxed policy on
dress regulations. For evening, men should
wear shorts and a collared shirt; and
ladies should wear a summer dress or
casual trousers and sandals.
Most importantly, pack your swimsuits,
sunscreen and hat, and some lightweight
shoes to protect your feet if you intend
to go exploring the reef.
