This shot of Cape York Tip, taken from a helicopter is looking south. It shows the tiny peninsula at the northernmost extreme of Australia where it juts into the Torres Strait. It can be accessed by land after 1800 km of rugged driving.

Use a high shutter speed to avoid motion blur. This image: 1.88 sec, F8, ISO 100, 27 mm.

Travel Information

Drive 1800 km north from Cairns or Port Douglas. Roads are dirt and depending upon weather and if a grader has not recently groomed the road, can be very rough. The easy way to get there is on a tour. Let others do the worrying. Definitely avoid the wet season, southern hemisphere summer.
