If you are planning an Australian holiday, then Cairns in far north Queensland must be part of your holiday itinerary. Cairns is known around the world as the best place to base yourself to see the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest and if you are into big game fishing then this is the home of the giant Black Marlin. Cairns is the tourist capital of North Queensland and has all the infrastructure you would expect in a modern western country like Australia. From Luxury accommodation, through first class tours and cruises through to the latest diving technologies and training, this is the place to come for the holiday of a lifetime.
The first thing you need for your Cairns holiday is great accommodation at the right price. There is so much to choose from. There are a number of great backpacker resorts to cater for the huge number of backpackers coming to Cairns. Apartment style accommodation is always in strong demand for tour patrons and families and there are a number of excellent resorts. International hotels are here by the dozen and at all extremes of accommodation standards from five star right back to the local suburban pub. Golf holidays are popular around Cairns with several wonderful resort courses that also provide excellent holiday accommodation.
While holidaying in Cairns, there are several things that you must do. The Skyrail provides a fantastic opportunity to be carried just above the rainforest canopy to the town of Kuranda on the Atherton Tableland behind Cairns and then return by the train which passes beside the Barron Falls across a spectacular bridge across the Barron River. The Great Barrier Reef is another obvious must see and there are dozens of tours and diving trips available to take you there. You can do a day trip or a live aboard extended tour on a luxury yacht or cruiser and snorkel and dive on the outer reef itself. The Daintree Rainforest is one of the last stands of pristine rainforest left in the world and is now world heritage listed. It can be accessed by tour from Cairns or you can actually choose great holiday accommodation right in the rainforest itself.
Cairns also has dozens of other great attractions and interesting activities including specials to keep your family occupied during your Cairns holiday.
