This beautiful city is located in the heart of Queensland's tropical north coast, framed by the Great Barrier Reef, and you will have the opportunity to visit this magnificent natural treasure, teeming with colourful coral reefs and tropical marine life.

During your time in the city, be sure to take a stroll along the Cairns Esplanade - almost two kilometres of landscaped parkland with a busy restaurant strip on one side and a natural harbour inlet on the other. And if you like shopping, you'll be spoilt for choice with good buys ranging from designer sunglasses, fashion and jewellery, to unique souvenirs including crystals and boomerangs. We berth overnight in Cairns, giving you the chance to sample the city's vibrant nightlife including a variety of welcoming bars.
