Blessed with an ideal climate all year-round, featuring temperatures in the summer months (October-April) of 29-33 degrees C, and winter (April-October) 25-29 degrees C, Cairns can offer some of the earth’s most exciting natural things to see and do, the great barrier reef, the rainforest and the Australian outback, and they are all here awaiting your discovery.
The very friendly natives of Tropical North Queensland will display the kind of friendly and sublime welcome that has become the envy of other tourism destinations. Adventure tourism, night life, dining and shopping multiply the variety and sexiness of this unique destination.
If you have been here before, welcome back. If you are here for your first adventure, bask in our attractions and enjoy your vacation. Australia’s premier regional city, Cairns is the international entrance to Tropical North Queensland. It is a vibrant cosmopolitan city with warm, sunny tropical days tempered by cooling onshore breezes.
Enjoy a walk along the pathed Esplanade or satisfy your hunger 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 most visitors who want to see the authentic 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, many thousands of years ago.
Venture a swim in the relaxing Esplanade lagoon, then look across the calm waters of Trinity Inlet and you will view coastal mountains and mangrove habitats that have not changed since the site was branded by Captain James Cook in 1770. The beautiful Esplanade Lagoon is the perfect place to spend a sultry day basking in the sun and dipping in the lagoon’s cool and seductive shallows.
There are many shady 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 more active.
Cairns is very well suited to walking, or travel by cycle. Well used paths and dedicated walking tracks abound. A tour of the Cairns Botanical Gardens is not to be neglected. It claims 38 hectares of native tropical gardens which are maintained to big city botanical garden standards, and many species found here cannot be seen elsewhere.
Located among the fauna is a coffee shop and restaurant, which is open daily for breakfast and lunch. Admission to the gardens is highly recommended.
