Hi, I'm turning 50 in August this year and the Mrs wants to whip me away to some where 'special'. To clarify things, we are in NZ and there is a strong likelyhood that some other family members may tag along, I was wondering if a week or so in Port Douglas my fit the bill for a relaxing place to go but with things to do, ie; maybe a bit of fishing, snorkling, sailing etc and as some of you guys may live in that area, perhaps you could come up with some suggestions? We are looking at about a week in the area. Any suggestions/opinions??
Thanks, Jack

Won a trip to Port Douglas last year, it was excellent. The Mrs & I went only for 5 days end Aug/Sept - weather was perfect (28 - 30 deg C) to escape from Victorian winter blues. Went to the reef/snorkeling, checked out the croc farm (fantastic), visited Kuranda markets (just outside Cairns), went to the beach etc, etc. Didn't get to the Daintree/Cape Trib - maybe next time. Would def go back.
