Track description:

This 700 metre walk is a short stroll through some towering coastal rainforest to the mangroves at the mouth of Emmagen Creek. The track is flat, but can be rough in places due to tree roots. The views of Cape Tribulation are spectacular, the beach is rocky, but good for exploring, and the mouth of the creek lined with mangroves. Do not swim here as crocodiles may frequent the creek area. You can walk along the beach from here to Cape Tribulation if the tide is not too high around the rocks.

How to get there:

The Emmagen Beach walk leaves from the dirt road about five kilometres north of Cape Tribulation in Daintree National Park. You can reach there in a two wheel drive, but it is not wise to travel any further north. There is small carpark on the western side of the road. There is small carpark on the western side of the road a few hundred metres south of Emmagen Creek (opposite the huge fig tree). The track begins opposite the carpark, in behind the fig tree.
