Ten Things To Do Close To Cairns Airport
- The steady flow of young backpackers has given Cairns a vibrant and electric
atmosphere, especially after the sun sets. Enjoy a night out on the town, starting at a
restaurant and ending in a nightclub.
- The leafy Koala Gardens in Kuranda are the perfect opportunity for you to get up
close and personal with Australia's favourite cuddly animals. Have a picture taken for
the friends back home.
- In Mareeba you can have breakfast with a difference, with early morning hot air
balloon rides giving you the ultimate view of the sunrise. A peaceful way to see Cairns
bathed in the morning sun!
- To experience the wonders of a rainforest without stepping outdoors, go to the
Cairns Rainforest Dome. Here all the forest elements like vegetation, water and
animals are housed in a specially designed dome.
- The Skyrail rainforest cableway travels up and down the side of the Atherton
Tablelands. Dont miss this chance to get close to the upper reaches of the rainforest,
and to see a birds eye view of Cairns.
- Kuranda comes alive every Saturday with throngs of people coming in to hunt
down a bargain or pick up some local produce at the Kuranda Markets. Local
craftspeople exhibit their wares here too.
- The Atherton Tablelands are home to the Barron Falls, a spectacular flow of water
crashing into a steep sided ravine. The vegetation in the gorge is thick and forest like,
and there is plenty of wildlife around.
- Cool yourself off in the artificial lagoon built on the Cairns esplanade. There are
playgrounds for the kids, and numerous eateries and bars where you can pick up a
snack.
- A couple of hours drive south of Cairns and you reach Mission Beach, a lush
tropical retreat where the rainforest literally barges its way onto the beach! Enjoy the
blue waters, white sands and the laid back attitude here.
- It would be sacrilege to come to this part of the world and not do a bit of diving on
the Great Barrier Reef. Tours run regularly to this wonder of the world, so hop on one
and enjoy the colours of the deep.
