Exotic fruit tasting tour at the Cape Trib Exotic Fruit Farm
After many years of running the exotic fruit tasting
tours at Cape Tribulation Digby and Alison have sold the farm and
retired.
But now the Cape Trib Farm runs tours every day at 2PM
in the peak season and a few days less outside the peak season. Here
you can discover such fruits as soursops, custard apples, rambutans,
mangosteens, salaks, chocolate pudding fruit, and carambolas.
Some of these fruit are starting to appear in markets
- but many will never appear in the big cities, as they are too fragile
to transport. They simply have to be eaten where they are grown, fresh
from the tree.

Some of the exotic fruits that will tantalize your tastebuds at the
tour
North Queensland's subtropical climate is excellent
for fruit trees from all parts of the world.

Digby showing some exotic fruit
Exotic tropical fruit comes in all shapes and sizes
- some are hairy, others have lumps and bumps or sharp spikes. Often
the most unusual fruit turns out to be the most delicious.
