Island paradise + 25 knot winds chasing us to Cairns Sailing North Queensland
Welcome back aboard Moor R & R for this week’s Adventure! Episode 41
This week on Moor R & R, our plans changed quickly as we left Cape Richards after a rolley night at anchor in search of calmer waters.
Our next stop was the breathtaking Dunk Island, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. With crystal-clear water, lush rainforest, and beautiful beaches, it’s easy to see why this tropical paradise is a favourite. We hiked to the stunning Muggy Muggy Beach, soaking up the incredible scenery along the way.
From there, we ventured across to Mould Island, a protected bird sanctuary that’s only open to visitors during certain times of the year. It’s a peaceful and unique little island that few people get the chance to experience.
With forecasts predicting strong winds of 25 knots or more over the coming days, it was time to make a dash north to Cairns before the weather arrived. Breaking up the journey, we spent a night at the spectacular Fitzroy Island, and after seeing just how beautiful it is, we already know we’ll be back to explore more.
We arrived safely in Cairns, ready to sit out the weather before continuing our journey further north.
See you next week as we leave Cairns and keep heading north!
Come along for the highs and lows of life at sea – the joy of community, the challenge of sailing, and all the fun we get up too !!!
