Cairns & the Daintree Rainforest
Reef Trips
Every day from Cairns and Port Douglas a flotilla of boats ferries passengers out to experi-
ence the bedazzling underwater world of the Great Barrier Reef. To sidestep the crowds,
join a live-aboard vessel and explore more remote sections of the reef.
Cairns after Dark
There are so many backpackers and international tourists in Cairns that it's sometimes hard
to spot a local. But you can usually find one or two in the city's boisterous pubs and bars -
great fun after dark.
Daintree Tours
Several excellent Aboriginal-led tour companies can take you on a cultural journey through
the timeless Daintree Rainforest and Mossman Gorge, offering an insight into the area's
rich indigenous heritage.
