Australia
Cape Tribulation campground rents out safari tents so you can have the experience of beach camping without carrying the gear. On the edge of the rainforest and 100 m from the beach. You are given a bed with bedding in a permanent tent with a small balcony looking out onto the rainforest. One of the best bits was meeting up with other campers in the well equipped communal BBQ and cooking area using the cooking kit supplied by the campground. From here you can walk up the beach to the mangrove boardwalk through the rainforest.
The southern night sky was an amazing sight from Cape Tribulation beach as we danced in the dark at the instigation of Martin, owner of the Dragonfly Restaurant, driver of the Cape Trib shuttle, guide for the half-day Daintree Experience, and all-round Aussie gem. Never has the night seemed so dark or the stars so many, so bright and so close.
