Cairns Vacation & Tourism Guide
photo by Gary&Cathy
Cairns is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Australia, and for good reason. The Great Barrier Reef is only a few hours away, and the city is filled with lagoons, rainforests and coastlines. Many visitors have noted that the climate is similar to that of Hawaii, making it a great choice for those wanting to avoid large crowds of vacationers during the warm spring and summer months. Families will especially love the fact that Cairns is known as the safest tropical city in the world.
