Cook Town Holiday Park

Attractions

Grassy Hill & Lighthouse

The superb view from Grassy Hill is a sight not to be missed. Enjoy sweeping views of the Endeavour River and Coral Sea. Accessible by road (not suitable for caravans/coaches) or via a scenic walking trail.

Fisherman’s Wharf
Once a bustling Gold Rush port, now a local favourite for fishing and relaxing. ‘Doing a wharfie’—driving along the wharf—is a classic Cooktown tradition. It’s also the start of the River of Life Walkway.
