Cairns, Queensland Australia



Cairns is the heart of the Tropical North and is an excellent base for exploring this region. The Cairns International Airport is a short ride from the city centre. The Cairns Marina is only one block from the city centre and is the departure point for most Great Barrier Reef trips.

This coastal region is framed by two features of such pristine beauty and exceptional value they have been listed by the World Heritage Society and today rank equal in importance with America’s Grand Canyon and the renowned Galapagos Islands. These two natural features, now acclaimed as amongst the world's most wonderful assets are The Great Barrier Reef and The Wet Tropics Rainforests.

The year-round natural attractions are truly memorable and inspiring. The colorful, sophisticated capital of the Tropical North, Cairns city is alive with life and charm. Here, warm northern hospitality and enthusiasm are the order of the day. Ask a local why they love their home and they're likely to say 'because its simply...beautiful'.

In the evening this small cosmopolitan centre offers the 100,000 residents and visitors a choice of over 100 restaurants. With an abundance of fresh seafood, exotic tropical fruits and the piquant flavors of native Australian cuisine, dining out is always a great experience.
