Port
Hinchinbrook is located next to the seaside town
of Cardwell overlooking Hinchinbrook Island, Australia's largest
island National Park.
Cardwell is
situated between the cities of Townsville (the unofficial capital
of Queensland state) and Cairns (the tourist capital of the state).
Both Townsville and Cairns are serviced with International and Domestic
Air Terminals. The former is 165 klms away (2 hours drive) and the
latter is 185 klms away connected by the fast national Bruce Highway
1.
Fast tilt trains
run to both cities and a light aircraft landing strip serves
Cardwell. It is envisaged
that the airstrip will be upgraded to meet the increasing travel
requirements of the area.
