Cairns & Port Douglas

Few places in the world have the luxury of a World Heritage-listed natural wonder in their backyard - we have two. Boasting a unique environment where Australia's largest rainforest meets the greatest reef in the world, Cairns & Port Douglas are natural hotspots for tropical experiences and nature-based adventure. 

Here you can jump on a boat, out of a plane, or surf through the treetops of the world renowned Daintree rainforest. With enough reef, sun, and wildlife to keep you occupied for a lifetime, you will be spoilt for choice.

Get your feet wet and dive into the fish bowl we call the Great Barrier Reef, take a scenic flight over the Coral Sea, or take your pick of the myriad of water sports and tours on offer.

Just bring a hat, some sun screen, and plenty of wanderlust. The adventure is on us.

Reef Experiences

Get a birds-eye view of the reef
