Posted by Crazy Phil on Nov 9, 2009 in Uncategorized

Fun, sun and recollections of a blissful tropical holiday, these are perfect elements for a vacation of a lifetime when you holiday in Cairns and the Tropical North.

Blessed with an ideal weather pattern most of the year, boasting temperatures in the Summer months (October-April) of 29-33 degrees C, and Winter months (April-October) 25-29 degrees C, Cairns is home to some of the planet’s most exciting natural tourist attractions, the barrier reef, the rainforest and the Australian Outback, and they are all here awaiting your visit.

The very friendly locals of Tropical North Queensland will display the kind of warm and courteous hospitality that has become the envy of other tourism areas. Adventure tourism, night life, dining and shopping add to the variety and attraction of this fabulous destination.

If you have been here before, welcome home. If you are here for the first time, bathe in our tourist offerings and enjoy your stay.

Australia’s premier regional city, Cairns is the world’s gateway to Tropical North Queensland. It is an exciting cosmopolitan city with warm, sunny tropical days balanced by cooling ocean breezes. Enjoy a walk along the central Esplanade or satisfy your tastebuds in one of Cairns’ many multi-cultural, diverse and award-winning eateries.

Cairns gives access to the World Heritage listed Great Barrier Reef and the Wet Tropics Rainforests as well as the Australian Outback. Cairns, with its international and domestic airport, is the first stop for many visitors who want to see the real Australia.

Relax on the tropical beaches, dive on the reef and experience the unique tropical rainforests that date back to when Australia was part of ancient Gondwanaland, thousands of years ago.

Take a swim in the relaxing Cairns Esplanade lagoon, then look across the serene waters of Trinity Inlet and you will see coastal mountains and mangrove areas that have changed little since the site was branded by Captain James Cook in 1770.

The beautiful Esplanade Lagoon is the perfect place to spend a sultry 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 walking, or travel by bicycle. Well trodden routes and dedicated walking tracks are abundant or a visit to the Cairns Botanical Gardens is not to be missed. 38 hectares of native Australian gardens are maintained to lush standards, and many plants found here cannot be seen elsewhere. Located among the plants is a coffee shop and restaurant, it is open every day for breakfast and lunch. Admission to the gardens is free.
