Cairns, Australia

Cairns is located in the NE of Australia, about two-thirds of the way up the Queensland coast (1,100 mls NW of Brisbane; 460 mls NW of Mackay; 670 mls NW of Rockhampton; 750 mls NW of Gladstone). Central Cairns is just 3 mls S of its own international airport. Tropical North Queensland in Australia is a holiday maker's paradise, bursting at the seams as an atractive 'hub' destination for nearby attractions and tours that showcase this remarkable part of the world. Cairns Esplanade, once a huge grassy park, now features a world-class facility incorporating an outdoor amphitheatre, a large sandy swimming lagoon, grassy picnic areas, walking tracks, free public barbeques, children's playground, shops and restaurants, an environmental interpretation centre and a Great Barrier Reef Cruise departure terminal.
