WHY STAY IN PORT DOUGLAS?
Port Douglas, the Athletes Village
Port Douglas offers the facilities of a natural athletes’ village and more. Cairns International Airport, commercial transfer services, a compact village with excellent accommodation options, local event management expertise including caterers and equipment for large groups and dependable weather all make Port Douglas the perfect marathon location.
The fact that Port Douglas is bounded by the World Heritage Listed Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest is just a huge bonus. Adventure marathon participants are typically searching for a world renowned destination as well as a challenging course and the CANEGROWERS 2013 Great Barrier Reef Marathon event packages clearly combine both the sporting adventure with the holiday destination.
