About Jungle Surfing Canopy Tours
Jungle Surfing Canopy Tours is a unique zipline and canopy tour operator based in the ancient Daintree Rainforest near Port Douglas, offering visitors the chance to fly through the world's oldest tropical rainforest canopy on a series of platforms and flying fox cables. Located in Cape Tribulation — where the Daintree Rainforest meets the Great Barrier Reef — Jungle Surfing provides an exhilarating perspective on one of Australia's most precious World Heritage environments.
The canopy tour consists of five platforms connected by ziplines strung high above the forest floor, with each cable offering a different view — from dense canopy corridors to panoramic ocean lookouts over the Coral Sea. Experienced guides accompany small groups, providing interpretation of the rainforest ecology, pointing out wildlife (including cassowaries, tree kangaroos, and Boyd's forest dragons), and ensuring safety throughout. No experience is needed, and the activity suits ages 4 and up.
Jungle Surfing stands out as one of the only zipline experiences in the world that takes place in a genuine, intact tropical rainforest — not a plantation or secondary growth. The Daintree is 180 million years old, and gliding through its canopy on cables provides an unforgettable combination of adrenaline, natural beauty, and environmental education that has made this one of the most popular attractions in Far North Queensland.
