Write a reviewThe Edmund Kennedy National Park is located four kilometres north of the town of Cardwell (one and a half hours drive north of the city of Townsville). The Park contains areas of low coastal rainforest, eucalypt forest, melaleuca woodland, sedge swamps and extensive mangrove forests. In fact, many of the mangrove species known to occur in Australia are found in the park. Much of the wildlife in the Edmund Kennedy National Park is nocturnal, although birdlife and reptiles may be seen during the day. Walking tracks take you through coastal rainforest, open forests and woodland before eventually reaching the beach. It is not recommended that any of the main creeks be crossed (nor is swimming recommended) as estuarine crocodiles are present in creeks in this area. The waters surrounding Edmund Kennedy National Park are part of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. Picnic areas with barbeques and toilets are available at the beach front. Bring your own drinking water. Camping is not permitted on the beach. Domestic animals are not permitted in the National park.
