The Great Barrier Reef a boat ride away rather than a flight, rainforest older than the Amazon starting almost at the airport fence, and a lagoon pool on the esplanade for when the actual ocean is full of things that sting.
The best time to visit Cairns is Jun–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 30°C (87°F).
