Explore Cairns & the Great Barrier Reef

Take the plunge into the Great Barrier Reef

Dive into an underwater paradise filled with life. The Great Barrier Reef, one of the seven Natural Wonders of the World, offers infinite ways to explore. Get up close and personal with dazzling coral formations, swim alongside marine creatures, or stay dry and still enjoy the view on a glass-bottom boat. Whether snorkelling, scuba-diving, or simply soaking up the reef’s magic, this is one for your bucket list.

Enter the ancient Wet Tropics Rainforest

Step into a forest older than the Amazon, where time seems to stand still surrounded by towering trees. Wander through shaded boardwalks or venture along winding trails to uncover stunning waterfalls and rare wildlife. From the Daintree to Misty Mountains, every corner of the Wet Tropics Rainforest feels like a chapter from a storybook.

Connect with the first custodians of the land

Take a cultural deep dive like no other. This region is home to the world’s oldest living cultures, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Learn their stories, passed down through generations, and join in guided tours, art workshops, or unique experiences like spearfishing lessons. These connections will give you a profound appreciation for the land and its spirit.

Find your slice of tropical beach paradise

Feel the warm sand between your toes on one of Queensland’s dreamy beaches. Head to Palm Cove for a relaxing escape, Fitzroy Island for snorkelling, or the untouched sands of Mission Beach for unmatched peace and quiet. Whether you’re building sandcastles with the kids or unwinding after a day of exploring, there’s no wrong way to enjoy this coastal paradise.

Treat yourself to tropical flavours

Enjoy dining experiences that feel as special as the scenery. Feast on seafood fresh from the ocean or indulge in tropical fruit on one of the region’s many food trails. Whether you’re sipping a cocktail at a beachfront bar or savouring something sweet under a canopy of palm trees, the flavours and settings combine for meals you’ll remember forever.
