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 most visitors who want to see the real Australia.
Relax on the sandy beaches, snorkel on the reef and experience the unique tropical rainforests that date back to when Australia was part of ancient Gondwanaland, many thousands of years ago.
Take a swim in the relaxing Esplanade lagoon, then look across the calm waters of Trinity Inlet and you will view coastal ranges and mangrove areas that have not changed since the site was discovered by Captain James Cook in 1770.
The stunning Esplanade Lagoon is the perfect location 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 escape from the sun in the heat of the day, as well as barbeque 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 walking, or transport by bicycle. Well used routes and dedicated walking paths are abundant. A tour of the Cairns Botanical Gardens is not to be missed. It claims 38 hectares of natural Australian gardens which are kept to lush standards, and many plants found here cannot be seen elsewhere. Located among the fauna is a coffee shop and restaurant, which is open every day for breakfast and lunch. Admission to the gardens is free.
