Explore Cairns & Great Barrier Reef

Dive in and explore the Great Barrier Reef

The Great Barrier Reef, one of the seven Natural Wonders of the World, is truly a sight to behold. It’s the largest coral reef system on Earth—a mesmerising underwater world teeming with vibrant marine life, colourful corals, and clear blue waters. Whether you're an experienced diver or a first-time snorkeller, there’s no shortage of ways to explore this natural marvel. Swim near turtles, spot Clownfish darting through anemones, or simply bask in the beauty of this renowned World Heritage Site. If you prefer to stay above water, glass-bottom boat tours and scenic flights offer breathtaking perspectives, too.

Discover the ancient Wet Tropics Rainforest

The ancient Wet Tropics Rainforest, which predates even the Amazon, is a treasure trove of biodiversity, wonder, and history. Wander through its emerald canopies on a guided tour, listen to the symphony of native birds, and marvel at waterfalls cascading through its pristine landscape. This rainforest, a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site, invites you to reconnect with nature and immerse yourself in an ecosystem that has thrived for millions of years.

 

Connect with the world’s oldest living cultures

Be inspired and connect with the traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples – the world’s oldest living cultures. Through storytelling, art, and dance, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation for their enduring connection to the land and sea. Learn about the rainforest during a bush tucker walk, take a traditional fishing lesson, or be ‘Welcomed to Country’ in an ancient ritual.

Beach bliss like no other

From palm-fringed sandy shores to tropical islands, your perfect beach is waiting for you. Whether you’re seeking a quiet moment of serenity or a lively day of beachside activities, Cairns & Great Barrier Reef deliver your dream beach escape. Explore iconic tropical islands like Fitzroy Island and Green Island or unwind at the glamorous beachside village of Palm Cove.

Savour Cairns’ culinary delights

Food lovers, rejoice! Cairns is a food haven that celebrates fresh, local produce in every dish. Dine beneath the swaying palms with waterfront views as your backdrop or discover regional flavours on a curated food trail. Sample tropical fruits, freshly caught seafood, and exotic treats that will leave your tastebuds singing. Wander around the markets at Yungaburra or Rusty’s Market, both of which offer the opportunity to see, smell, and taste the tropical north.
