One of the big attractions
of Port Douglas is its sense of natural beauty, calm and isolation.
This really is a tropical
paradise getaway for those who like to think that the worst of civilization is a long, LONG way away over the
horizon. The area has a certain relaxed, Bohemian and slightly ‘alternative’
lifestyle that our guests love.
However, much as we might
all love to play the desert island castaway, the reality is that most of us
also like to sneak back to the modern world a bit from time to time. Staying at
our Sea Temple Port
Douglas luxury accommodation, you’ll be able to do exactly that!
One great place to visit to
remember what society is all about is the weekly Port Douglas Markets.
They were established
around 25 years back and are a great local tradition now every Sunday. Shortly
after the market was founded, the local council declared it to be a “Cotter’s Market”. The term Cotter goes
back to Mediaeval English and originally referred to someone (a peasant or
‘villein’) who was tied to the land, legally speaking.
OK, we’re digressing – the
point is that today’s Cotter’s market definition means that stallholders must
be the ones who produced their wares. So, you’ll see the very best of local
fruit, vegetables, other foodstuffs and crafts. It’s fantastic fun to not only
look and perhaps buy but also to get the chance to talk to the people who
produced the goods on sale.
