Resort Cairns – What Cairns has to Offer
Cairns gives 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 authentic Australia.
Bask on the glorious beaches, snorkel on the reef and experience the unique tropical rainforests that date back to when Australia was part of ancient Gondwanaland, thousands of eons ago.
Venture a dip in the modern Cairns Esplanade lagoon, then cast your eyes across the calm waters of Trinity Inlet and you will discover 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 lazy day basking in the sun and dipping in the lagoon’s cool and inviting 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 extremely well suited to travel on foot, or transport by cycle. Well frequented routes and dedicated walking tracks are popular. A tour of the Cairns Botanical Gardens is not to be neglected. It features 38 hectares of native Aussie gardens which are kept to lush standards, and many species found here cannot be seen anywhere else in the world. Located among the vegetation is a coffee shop and restaurant, which is open daily for breakfast and lunch. Entry to the gardens is free.
