Cairns Airport

Airport travel guide

The gateway to Far North Queensland, Cairns has long served as a popular tourist destination. A gateway not only to the Great Barrier Reef but also the ancient rainforest of the Daintree, the cool hinterlands of Atherton, and the road to the remote Cape York Peninsula, Cairns holds the keys to some of the country's most remarkable natural wonders.

  • Great Barrier Reef. A unique ecosystem and one of the seven natural wonders of the world, the Great Barrier Reef is the main attraction of Northern Australia. Whether you visit one of the islands, go scuba diving or snorkeling, or simply enjoy the views, this is one attraction that is not to be missed. A number of reef tours take off from Cairns, as well as some of the surrounding towns and villages.
  • The Daintree. Where the forest meets the reef, the Daintree Rainforest some 100km north of Cairns is one of Australia’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders. The rainforest here is estimated to be over 135 million years old, some of the last remnants of the vast forest that once covered the entire continent of Australia. Its striking beauty, unfathomable age, and incredible diversity make it one of the country's most sought-after destinations. 
  • The Atherton Tablelands. A high plateau behind coastal Cairns, the Atherton Tablelands is renowned for its lush rainforest, incredible waterfalls, native fauna, and local produce. The towns of Millaa Millaa, Yungerburra, and Kuranda and the waterfall circuit are just some of the highlights of this spectacular region.
  • Cape York. The trip to the most northern point of Australia is no easy feat. One of the country's final frontiers, traversing this untamed wilderness makes for a challenging journey, one where self-sufficiency is demanded. Rough dirt roads, unpredictable weather and long stretches between outpost towns Cape York is a true adventure but one that will reward travelers with astonishing natural beauty.
  • National Parks. While the reefs and beaches are undoubtedly amazing, there’s also a lot of nature to enjoy away from the coast. Cairns is surrounded by an absolute wealth of nature preserves a couple of hours' drive (or less) from the city. These include the Kuranda State Forest and Hann Tableland National Park to the north; Danbulla National Park to the west; and Gadgarra, Wooroonooran, Tully Falls, and Tully Gorge National Parks to the south. The most adventurous will also try to travel to the truly wild and pristine national parks of northernmost Queensland, though reaching these parts require a lot of planning and the help of a tour or a guide.
  • Cairns Botanic Gardens. Though there are a lot of truly tropical areas and nature preserves within a day’s ride of Cairns, it’s also possible to enjoy true forest without leaving the city. Divided into different sections, like the Mangroves and Rainforest Boardwalks and the Aboriginal Plant Use Garden, the area also has both saltwater and freshwater lakes and is home to a large number of tropical birds.

Port Douglas was well worth the drive for the day. Palm Cove was very quiet. Dundees restaurant on the wharf was worth a visit. The Kuranda SkyRail and scenic railway are a must, but go up on the train, then you are free to return on the Skyrail whenever you are ready. Food is questionable at Kuranda. Eat before you go or after you get back.

Port Douglas Markets on a Sunday. We stayed at Trjbity a beach for the week - we find they this is a beautiful location and a great base as opposed to Cairns City. We walked from Clifton Beach to Palm Cove, had a late breakfast and walked back via the beach. Babinda Boulders and the Babinda Bakery. The Cairns Botanical Gardens - definitely worth a visit - it was also free and amazing art displays in the tanks. We also visited Yorkys Knob, Holloways and Mechans and spent a day in the city doing some shopping. We love Cairns and surrounding areas and see more each visit.

We hired a car for our trip to Port Douglas where we stayed for 3 nights. We also drove to Daintree Rainforest and caught the Ferry there and back in our car. Very efficient and easy to arrange and a great way to go self exploring. We found this to be more cost effective for us instead of booking for a tour and bus. Also visited to Solar Whisper tour which was right near the entrance to the Ferry ride and taken out on a solar powered boat to spot wildlife and crocodiles.

I am afraid we had a shocker, 4 meals were terrible. Going from no food being delivered to very poor quality, finally my wife got food poisoning. The car was very good, even though we didn't use it on the second last day, because she was in bed all day. We were surprised that our bags turned up on ourctrip home. Ce la vie
