cairns

Cairns is such a colourful and exciting city, with its glitzy lagoons and pristine Pier Marketplace. It boasts modernism and cosmopolitanism and is so massively popular with travellers.

Cairns is brimming with energy, with its stunning dining locations, markets, accommodation and seaside ambience. It is an ideal base to explore the Great Barrier Reef, rainforest, Atherton Tableland and beyond.

When to visit:

The city is positively booming all year round, with peak season from June to October when the rainfall is smallest and temperatures pleasantly hot. November is great for good deals on accommodation, with the sunshine still glowing yet the hordes of tourists subsiding.
