Host City - Cairns

Cairns is your gateway to discovering the magic of Australia’s true tropics. From Cairns, you can swim among the bright colourful fish and coral in the World Heritage-listed Great Barrier Reef, escape to a private tropical island, walk through some of the oldest rainforests on the planet and discover adventure in the diverse environments that make up wonderful Tropical North Queensland. It’s the ultimate destination to enjoy spectacular natural beauty at its absolute best, and to find fun, adventure or relaxation.

In October, we can expect temperatures of around 29°C during the day and 19°C in the evening, with humidity of approximately 57%.

Cairns features domestic and international airports so access from within Australia and around the world is simple. Please see the General Information page of this website for further information on airline carriers flying to and from Cairns.
