1Eungella National Park
Experience one of Australia’s most unique wildlife encounters at Eungella National Park, known as one of the best places in the world to see wild platypus. Nestled high in the rainforest-covered Clarke Range, Eungella offers calm freshwater creeks where these shy and fascinating creatures feed and play. Watch quietly from the viewing platforms as platypus surface, dive, and glide through crystal-clear pools. Your guide shares insights into their behaviour, habitat, and ongoing conservation efforts. Surrounded by lush rainforest, birdlife, and cool mountain air, this is a rare opportunity to observe one of Australia’s most iconic native animals in its natural environment — just a scenic drive from Airlie Beach and the Whitsunday Coast.
