Perched high on a headland, where the rim of the World Heritage Rainforest sweeps down to the beaches that lead to the Great Barrier Reef, lies The Horizon at Mission Beach in tropical North Queensland.

You are at the very edge of a natural heritage where an abundance of wildlife makes its home in and around the giant trees. Look out towards the ocean, over the miles of white sandy beaches, to a patchwork of exotic islands dotting the magnificent Coral Sea. Unspoilt nature is all around you.

The Horizon is an ideal hideaway for honeymooners or those who want to escape from the tensions and bustle of modern urban life into a world apart.

South Mission Beach owes its name to an aboriginal mission, one of the numerous historical landmarks in the area. Over the years many famous people have appreciated the peace and serenity of the region and some remained to establish homes along the fourteen kilometres of white sandy beaches.

Even if your stay with us is somewhat shorter, we are sure that the brief interlude will be an unforgettable experience that you will treasure forever.

Mission Beach is secluded, yet it is also the perfect base to explore the other wonders of the region; the Great Barrier Reef, Hinchinbrook Island, Dunk Island, Atherton Tablelands, Cairns, World Heritage Wet Tropic Rainforest and the Gulf Savannah.

Oceanview Restaurant and Pool Bar.
The restaurant overlooks the pool, coastline, ocean and Dunk and Bedarra Islands. The main area seats 100 with further seating for 60 guests on the ouside deck.

Conference Room.

Perched on a headland you can look out towards the Coral Sea and soak up the stunning, unspoiled beauty of Bedarra Island. This fully air-conditioned room can comfortably seat 60 banquet style, 100 theatre style and 40 classroom style and can be themed to suit any occasion.

Meeting Room.
Located adjacent the main Lobby area is the Meeting Room, which is ideal for those smaller, more private meetings or seminars.  Both the Conference Room and the Meeting Room feature natural light resources and can be varied in their set up to suit your requirements.

For the more energetic The Horizon Resort offers:

Scuba diving, snorkelling, game fishing, reef fishing, water skiing, tandem ski-diving, sailboarding, jet skis, golf, floodlit tennis, rainforest walks, white water rafting and wildlife photo safaris. Our large surface tension swimming pool is saline-filter treated.

Some will just enjoy the simplicity of strolling through the majesty of the World Heritage Wet Tropics Rainforest or along a "picturebook" beach.  A rare opportunity to commune with authentic nature in our hectic world.

The hideaway township of Mission Beach is surrounded by a lush backdrop of World Heritage listed wet tropical rainforest, sunkissed white sandy beaches and the silvery shimmering blues of the Coral Sea.

A picturesque 1.5 hours drive south from Cairns International and Domestic Airports, through rich cane fields, banana plantations and historic towns, Mission Beach is a unique and unspoilt haven.

There are some twenty tropical islands lazing just off shore and fourteen kilometres of sandy beaches edging up to the only surviving lowlands rainforest in the Australian tropics.

There are ample opportunities for ferry rides or visits to places of interest like the Great Barrier Reef, Hinchinbrook Island National Park, Paronella Park, the Atherton Tablelands, Cairns, waterfalls, mountain streams, crocodile farms and tours of the Outback.
