📖 About Portland Roads (E 2)

Portland Roads is a tiny, remote fishing community on the east coast of Cape York Peninsula, nestled beside a sheltered bay adjacent to Kutini-Payamu (Iron Range) National Park — home to tropical rainforest and 15 bird species endemic to Australia. The beach and surrounds are accessible only by 4WD during the dry season or by light aircraft year-round, and the area is a base for birdwatching, fishing, and exploring nearby Chilli Beach. It suits serious adventurers seeking true wilderness isolation in one of Australia's most untouched corners.
