Daintree Rainforest and Noah Beach, Queensland, Australia Jul 5, 2024

Welcome to a land where greenery meets the endless blue! Situated on the North Queensland coast of Australia is Noah Beach, a sanctuary encircled by the dense foliage of the Daintree Rainforest. Bordered by the waters of the Coral Sea, this beach is a fascinating blend of two distinct ecosystems—the rainforest seamlessly meeting the azure waters of the sea. This secluded area of the Daintree National Park boasts a stretch of soft, golden sands. In this national park there are towering trees, lush ferns and other plant species that are unique to the area. This rainforest is the largest continuous expanse of its kind in Australia and is believed to have existed for up to 180 million years, making it the oldest tropical rainforest in the world.
