Cape York Peninsula

Cape York Peninsula
Cape York Peninsula is located in northern Queensland, Australia, where the Indian and Pacific oceans meet. The peninsula contains some of the wildest and least-developed land on the continent. The region experiences heavy precipitation almost year-round, supporting rain forests on its eastern slopes and flooded swamps in the western lowlands.
