Top Instagram Worthy Spots On The Great Barrier Reef
1. Millaa Millaa Falls
Considered the most photographed waterfalls in Australia, Millaa Millaa Falls are an Instagram-worthy example of a rainforest scene. Located in tropical North Queensland, keep your eyes open for platypus and vibrant Ulysses butterflies. Boasting an almost 20-metre drop and crystal clear swimming hole, Millaa Millaa is a prime, Heritage-listed site of iconic Queensland scenery.
2. Mossman Gorge
Mossman Gorge is a true global landmark, more than 135 million years old. A part of the expansive Daintree Rainforest, Mossman Gorge features picture-perfect streams of the Mossman River, large boulders, and a wealth of flora and fauna. The Daintree Ecolodge offers accommodation in the heart of the Daintree, in premium Instagram-worthy cabins surrounded by lush rainforest.
3. Infinity Pool at Orpheus Island Lodge
Two words: infinity pool. Orpheus Island Lodge has an extremely Instagram-worthy pool, bordering the perfect white sand of Orpheus Island and looking out to the Coral Sea. Sunrise and sunset are said to be the best times to enjoy this spot, as the water’s edge disappears and meets the horizon.
