Moon River
Moon River, Cairns, Australia Phone: Not AvailableAbout
Moon River is a tidal creek that drains the Half Moon Creek Wetland Reserve, that extends for 2.5 km south of the river mouth. The beach has been built across the creek mouth between Earl Hill to the north and 70 m high Yorkeys Knob to the south. A harbour-marina was constructed in 1990's immediately south of the river mouth, and its two harbour walls have substantially stabilised the creek. The marina is backed by a resort and golf course, while there is a canal estate off the creek, behind the main part of the beach.
