Cairns, population 160,000 is a great city. Lovely beachfront, plenty of parks and well landscaped streets. It is the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and the Baintree Tropical Rainforest. A rainforest in Australia? Yes and a unique one at that. Plants and animals found nowhere else. If I return to Australia this is where I will come. As you might guess a large part of the economy is tourism.
We had just one day and I ended up visiting their awesome aquarium and walking around the beachfront. Had I known about the rainforest I would have booked a tour there.
The climate is hot and humid so winter is the preferred season.Leia mais
