Cairns
This coastal region is framed by two features of such pristine beauty and exceptional value they have been listed by the World Heritage Society. Acclaimed as amongst the world's most wonderful assets are the Great Barrier Reef and the Wet Tropics Rainforests. The colourful, sophisticated capital of the tropical north, Cairns city is alive with life and charm.
Port Douglas
After a scenic one hour drive north from Cairns International Airport, you will arrive at the sleepy, former fishing village of Port Douglas.
In this laid back yet sophisticated tropical paradise, you can play golf, shop in world class specialty shops and dine in exquisite tropical ambience. Port Douglas offers a great selection of day trips. Dive or fish the Great Barrier Reef, take an escorted tour of the Daintree River and Rainforest, or sail to Low Isles for the day.
North Mackay
The Mackay Region is an idyllic, unspoiled area of Central Queensland, stretching westwards from the Great Barrier Reef over tropical lowlands, across the green mountain ranges and west into the Outback. Mackay Region makes an ideal holiday stopover, short break escape or meeting place for business, set midway between Brisbane and Cairns, with Mackay city easily accessible by QantasLink Jetstar and Virgin Blue airlines, QRail’s new Tilt Train, express bus lines Greyhound, McCafferty’s and Premier, car or campervan along Queensland’s prime coastal trunk route - the Bruce Highway. An alternative route into the region is by the Great Inland Way via Emerald, Clermont and the Peak Downs Highway.
