Queensland’s premier non-capital city, Cairns is the international gateway to Tropical North Queensland. It is a vibrant cosmopolitan place with warm, sunny tropical days balanced by cooling onshore breezes. Enjoy a walk along the iconic Esplanade or satisfy your tastebuds in one of the city’s many multi-cultural, diverse and award-winning restaurants.
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 authentic Australia.
Laze on the tropical beaches, snorkel on the reef and experience the unique tropical rainforests that date back to when the continent was part of ancient Gondwanaland, many thousands of eons ago.
Take a dip in the iconic Esplanade lagoon, then look across the calm waters of Trinity Inlet and you will discover coastal ranges 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 location to spend a sultry day basking in the sun and wading in the lagoon’s cool and seductive shallows. 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 culture and has many exercise facilities for those keen on getting a bit of exercise.
Cairns is extremely well suited to travel on foot, or travel by cycle. Well trodden pathways and dedicated walking tracks are abundant. A walk through the Cairns Botanical Gardens is not to be missed. It claims 38 hectares of natural Australian gardens which are maintained to big city botanical garden standards, and many species found here cannot be seen elsewhere. Located among the plants is a coffee shop and restaurant, which is open daily for breakfast and lunch. Access to the gardens is free.
