CAIRNS, AUSTRALIA (2026) | 10 Awesome Things To Do In & Around Cairns (+ Travel Tips)
Video Overview & Insights
The city of Cairns is located on the northeast coast of Queensland. It’s nestled on a narrow coastal strip between the Great Dividing Range and the Coral Sea. This unique location is perhaps best highlighted by the fact that it’s the only place in the world where two World Heritage-listed sites exist side-by-side. The Great Barrier Reef and the Wet Tropics Rainforest blend into each other, making this area a premier destination for both marine exploration and rainforest adventures. In this video, we’ll share our top things to do in and around Cairns, which are perfect for a first-time visit:
