Tropical North Queensland

Whether it's an indulgent break or a life changing adventure, this spectacular region offers you a magical and unforgettable experience. Tropical North Queensland is where the rainforest meets the reef. Few places on earth can boast such unique natural attractions with the Great Barrier Reef offering an underwater treasure trove of dazzling coral and sea life, and superb World Heritage listed tropical rainforests within easy reach.

Other tranquil settings include the Cairns Highlands, a patchwork of farmlands, rainforest, and lakes offering a cool rural retreat from the coast and the beachside hamlets that make up the Great Green Way. From Cairns peaceful beaches stretch along the coast including the popular boutique destinations of Palm Cove, Port Douglas, Cape Tribulation, and Mission Beach. Other quiet beach havens include Trinity Beach and Yorkey's Knob while ten of the Great Barrier Reef's premier islands sit atop the azure waters off the coast.
