Queensland’s finest regional city, Cairns is the world’s front door to Tropical North Queensland. It is an exciting cosmopolitan destination with warm, sunny tropical days tempered by cooling onshore breezes. Enjoy a walk along the famous Esplanade or satisfy your lust for food in one of Cairns’ many multi-cultural, diverse and prize-winning eateries.

Cairns provides access to the World Heritage listed Great Barrier Reef and the Wet Tropics Rainforests along with the Australian Outback. Cairns, with its international and domestic airport, is the first stop for many visitors who want to see the real Australia.

Relax on the sandy beaches, dive on the reef and experience the unique tropical rainforests that date back to when the continent was part of ancient Gondwanaland, thousands of eons ago.

Take a swim in the modern Cairns Esplanade lagoon, then look across the serene waters of Trinity Inlet and you will view coastal mountains and mangrove habitats that have not changed since the site was discovered by Captain James Cook in 1770.

The beautiful Esplanade Lagoon is the perfect place to spend a sultry day basking in the sun and wading in the lagoon’s cool and seductive water. There are many shaded spots to take refuge from the sun in the heat of the day, as well as cooking facilities. The boardwalk has unique displays of Cairns’s local history and has many exercise facilities for those keen on getting a bit of exercise.

Cairns is extremely well suited to walking, or travel by bicycle. Well trodden routes and dedicated walking tracks abound or a visit to the Cairns Botanical Gardens is not to be missed. 38 hectares of native Australian gardens are maintained to lush standards, and many species found here cannot be seen elsewhere. Located among the plants is a coffee shop and restaurant, it is open every day for breakfast and lunch. Admission to the gardens is free.
