Information About Cairns
Cairns is the hub of Tropical North Queensland, Australia: the international gateway into a very special part of the world. It is the heart of the Tropical North and is an excellent base for exploring this region. The Cairns International Airport is a short ride from the city centre.
 The Cairns Marina is only one block from the city centre and is the departure point for most Great Barrier Reef trips.
In the evening this small cosmopolitan centre offers the 100 000 residents and visitors a choice of over 100 restaurants. With an abundance of fresh seafood, exotic tropical fruits and the piquant flavours of native Australian cruisine, dining out is always a great experience.
The further north you go the prettier the beaches get with Palm Cove and Ellis Beach being my pick of the bunch.
 Lots of travellers love Trinity Beach which is wonderful on windy days as it is well sheltered. It is a good idea and sometimes cheaper to hire a car and drive as opposed to being reliant on the local buses.
Unfortunately between October and April you will need to swim in the Stinger Net enclosures at the beaches as the Box Jellyfish and friends are a dangerous presence at our local beaches.
