Mulgrave River Tube Ride
A wet and wild day awaits on the scenic Mulgrave River. To make the most of your day wear a swimsuit under your clothes, bring a towel, sunscreen and waterproof shoes. Upon arrive, you'll meet your fully certified river guide who'll offer a few safety instructions. Next, grab your high-quality tube and follow your guide along a nature trail down to the river. Step into your tube and slowly enter the river. The beginning stretch of water is relatively tame, giving you a feel for the tube. Then lay back and hold on as the gentle rapids carry you downstream and past exquisite scenery.

What you will see along the way:
From the pier it's just a 30-minute drive to the Mulgrave River in the beautiful Goldsborough Valley, one of the greenest areas in the tropical north. So green, in fact, it's part of UNESCO'S Wet Tropics World Heritage Area.
