Cape Melville is a little visited destination on the way to Cape York and the main reasons are the remoteness of the place and the difficult access tracks. Cape Melville National Park is peppered with giant granite boulders and dense rainforest. When exploring this area in 2013, a group of scientists discovered three new species indigenous to this peninsula. The place that was touted as the ‘lost world’ gained popularity among scientists. The place is still largely unexplored, and rightly so. It is the only way to save it from the damage due to excessive exploration.
