The distance of 1600 miles from Sydney and 1070 miles from Brisbane looks short when the natural beauty of Cairns meets the eyes. It takes approximately 4 hours by plane from Brisbane to reach the much-touted “safest tropical city in the world”.

If there is one thing that attracts the tourists to Cairns, then it’s tropical climate takes the cake. With the mean temperature ranging from 25.7 °C in July to 31.4 °C in January, Cairns offers typical tropical weather. The dry season in Cairns lasts from April to November and rains fall in Cairns between November and March.

With its rich natural resources, Cairns has no shortage of tourist destinations. The awesome Great Barrier Reef that can be seen from outer space and is sometimes referred to, as the single largest organism in the world is just one-and-a-half hour drive from Cairns by boat. And if wildlife is your calling, The Daintree National Park, one of the oldest existing rainforests in the world, beckons you.

Cairns offers the natural charm of Northern Beaches, which include the Yorkey’s Knob, Trinity Beach, Holloways Beach, Machans Beach, Kewarra Beach, Clifton Beach and Palm Cove. The sun-soaked sand, the lukewarm water and the palm tree lined beaches accord Cairns the status of a hot tourist spot. Some of the other spots of interest include Cairns Botanical Gardens, Curtain Fig Tree, Babinda Boulders, Josephine Falls, Tinaroo Dam, Walsh’s Pyramid, Goldsborough Valley, Red Arrow Walk and Crystal Cascades.

The adventure sport enthusiasts can look forward to White Water Rafting, Bungy Jumping, Skydiving, Scuba Diving, Mountain Biking, 4WD Touring, Sea Kayaking, Sailing, Flying Leap, Kite Surfing, Rapids Kayaking, Helifishing, Parasailing, Horse Riding, Hot Air Ballooning and lots more…
