Cairns is located in Tropical North Queensland about 1700 km north of Brisbane or 2400 km north of Sydney when travelling by road. With a modern international airport, Cairns is easily accessable to visitors from all over the world. The Tropical North is world famous for its world heritage rainforest and ecosystems and of course the renowned Great Barrier Reef. Cairns is well known for being the perfect starting point for exploring the Great Barrier Reef, Daintree and Atherton Tablelands. Wherever you go in the Cairns region you will be amazed by the lush tropical vegetation. Beautiful tropical gardens are everywhere and the colour and diversity of life will amaze.

The climate of Cairns is warm and tropical with maximum temperatures varying from around 31 degrees Celsius in summer to around 25 degrees Celcius in winter. While the temperatures are relatively mild all year round the humidity can reach up to 78% in summer making it uncomfortable for those not used to it. The monsoon months of January to March are also very wet and tropical cyclones are not uncommon in this period. For these reasons the winter and spring months are the most popular for visitors.
