What to Bring:
The mood of the tropics lends itself to casual attire. Loose, light clothing is the perfect attire for daytime resort wear. Smart casual attire is suitable for evenings in Julaymba Restaurant.

The Weather:
The Daintree climate is truly tropical with the weather during the dry season, roughly May to October, offering warm days and cooler nights with low humidity.  The dry season tends to be the most popular travel season.

December to March is generally the Wet Season relasing torrential rain and hotter days and nights.  These months offer a very lush environment with creeks and waterfalls running at capacity.  This rain is soothing to the soul, a great opportunity to really disconnect from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.  The lodge is closed for February and half of March.
