We made it to the northernmost point of our road trip: Cape Tribulation.

Lush vegetation, lots of wildlife if you look closely. The ocean is eerie – it’s hard to tell where it ends and the sky begins. It’s so very humid in summer.

Great little cafe/kiosk where we were staying. But we also cooked our meals in the camp kitchen.

There’s no grid power here, north of the Daintree River, so the Safari Lodge and Campground (our accommodation) and other places all run on diesel generators. The generator supplies the electricity for the powered sites, cabins, lights, kiosk, washing machines, everything. A few places have solar panels. There are plans for a micro-grid to get rid of the diesel generators. I'm surprised that they don't have more solar here, but it is coming

Charging:

We didn’t want to plug in and add to the diesel burning, so we just used the Tesla’s battery energy until we returned to the grid south of the river a few days later.
