Cairns Travel Guide

Cairns on the north east tip of Australia is a tropical haven and a must must for any traveler.

The gateway to the iconic and world famous Great Barrier Reef Cairns delivers on beauty admist the tropical climate and extensive wildlife.

So many beautiful places to see, to suit anyone or any budget

Here is a little snippet I found with a brief description of Cairns

Cairns, considered the gateway to Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, is a city in tropical Far North Queensland. Its Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park tells the stories of indigenous Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with music and dance. Cairns Esplanade, lined with bars and restaurants, has a swimming lagoon. Northwest of the city, Daintree National Park spans mountainous rainforest, gorges and beaches.
