Babinda Boulders

Babinda Boulders is the nicest swimming hole I've been to in the Cairns area. While it is quite cold at times, it is a great way to cool off on a hot day. Also, there are no crocs and it isn't as busy as some other swimming holes. It also has dedicated changing rooms and bathrooms. A nice place to go for a swim.

Great spot to visit and swim. Was not busy at all. Water is a little colder than you would expect. So pack a towel if you visit.

What a beautiful place, crystal clear water and excellently maintened. Had the chance to meet Jason, what a legend! Made the visit super interesting and recommended great spots. Take care brother!

Very picturesque and a lovely short walk to look over the devils pools. But it was a bit tricky finding a decent swimming spot. Worth a visit if you have time and fancy a stroll with excellent views. Read up on the legend too for a bit of extra info/quirk. Personally, I’m a believer and felt some eeriness but even if you’re not convinced, it’s a good read.

This is great for picnic and float on cool waters. Current can be strong though, so would advise seeking advice if children going with you 😃
