You can sip sparkling from the deck of a sunset cruise one day, go swimming around islands, coral atolls and sandy beaches; then explore Cape Tribulation and the lush Daintree Rainforest the next. The tropics, with its temperate climate and vast array of natural, cultural and historic sites is an ideal holiday location with plenty to see, do and discover. Take a Dreamtime walk in Mossman Gorge, road trip from Cairns to the Cassowary Coast, relax in Port Douglas and Palm Cove, immerse yourself in the lush Atherton Tablelands and hit the Cape. Plus, it's the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef.
