Cairns City Accommodation

Cairns' location is absolutely magnificent. Located 400km from the northernest part of the State of Queensland, it lies on the warm waters of Trinity Bay.

Cairns continues to develop and modernise - as can be appreciated from endeavors such as the Cairns Convention Centre, Cairns Reef Casino, Cairns City Council Chambers and major shopping complexes - whilst preserving sweet touches from its pioneering days, such as The Pioneer cemetery on McLeod Street or the Cairns City Library on the corner of Abbott/Aplin streets. These are just some of the unique structures that help to add a sense of living history to this relatively young 123 year old coastal city.

The Esplanade is peaceful during the day with visitors catching the early morning rays and watching the unique bird life feeding along the mudflat's. Palm trees line the length of the Esplanade highlighting the Tropical feel of this warm city. After the sun goes down, the Esplanade is a hive of activity with traders and restaurants preparing for the hundreds of people who flock to embrace the almost carnival atmosphere.

The aroma of pasta, seafood and steaks are in the air as restaurants and eateries feed hungry visitors and locals. Tour booking agencies are busy with tourists booking the next few days of activities.

The heart of the City of Cairns, you will find assorted retail shops, tour booking agencies, Internet access, restaurants and free entertainment. The sound shell regularly offers free entertainment with Island dancers and local artists performing free for the public.
