On the way from Abergowrie State Forest to Mission Beach the highway has ‘possum crossings’ set up, and signs to ‘cyclone shelters’ at each town (not necessarily for the possums). We stopped in Cardwell for one of their ‘famous Crab Sandwiches’ and they were seriously good, filled with fresh crab. From Cardwell the view across to beautiful Hinchinbrook Island was amazing. Lots of signs along the beach saying this area is crocodile habitat, so no swimming here.
