Cairns is as they say"AbsolutelyFabulous". I've had 3 trips there now & plan to visit every year this wonderful part of the world. So relaxing & warm, throughout the year, but July & August seem to be just endless days of sunshine. So much to enjoy that I could never tire of enjoying its beauty and scenery. Lovely people, friendly and helpful, I want to live there one day!

Tjapukai Aboriginal Park
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/30/08
This was one of the two major highlights of our family trip to Cairns. It was well thought out and interactive. The (adult) kids liked it as much as we did. The special effects were great but the Aboriginal Dancers were spectacular, friendly and accomplished in their art. Worth every dollar and more. Would highly recommend that you dont miss it. We went to the evening show which was full of fire and imagination. Food was good too.

great local sports clubs
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/17/06
If you live farther than 50 miles from these clubs you can sign in as a visitor at no charge. The best club in Cairns is "Brother's". The inexpensive food and drink are not just a bargain but really great, there's free entertainment and you'll meet the locals. There are"pokies",(slot machines) too. I love Cairns and return every year.

Fantastic place, beautiful weather, awesome nightlife. The scenery is breathtaking, although alot of rain, it keeps it looking nice and green! as apposed to Townsville(don't go there unless you have a relatives there!). The population isn't 96, 000, it happens to be 140,000(in response to previous Cairns comment)Overall 9.5 out of 10!

As you arrive in the small but touristy town, outside of the Daintree National Rainforest, look for a quick and inexpensive and good breakfast, and grab your snorkel or scuba gear and head for Quicksilver. Bring a light jacket, for the morning ride might get chilly, but soon the Austrailian sun kisses your body and the temp heats up. After a 45 min ...
Cairns is really the Jewel of the Australian tourist calendar, an international destination as yet still a wondrous beauty where the rainforest meets the sea!
Home of the Great Barrier Reef, the oldest rainforest in the world and just north of Cairns is where the two world heritage areas meet... rainforest and the reef. Step from the cool waters ...
Cairns is wonderfull!!!! Make sure you go downtown and enjoy the sites!!! The people are friendly (like everyone in Australia) and I was able to meet many people from all over the world. Its a great home base for day trips to the Reef, Daintree Rain forest, and Cape Tribulation. Cairns was one of the best stops on my tour of Australia....with its tropical feel and friendly atmosphere it is a must go!!!!!
