Marakoopa Cave

The Mole Creek Karst National Park is characterised by its extensive network of sediment and bone deposit, as well as shawls, and speleothems which make up stalactites and stalagmites. The Marakoopa cave is popular for its fantastic glow worm display, and features two underground streams, large caverns, rim pools, reflections and shawl and flowstone features.

Echidna

Echidnas are quill-covered monotremes living in Australia and New Guinea. The echidna and the platypus are the only living mammals that lay eggs and the only surviving members of the order Monotremata.

Maingon Bay

Beyond Port Arthur is a penninsular that hosts Maingon Bay Lookout and Remarkable Cave. In the distances is the towering dolerite columns of Cape Raoul. Beneath the lookout, green hills tumble down to meet the clean blue waters of the bay and small waves splash gently onto rock ledges.
