Kuranda

Kuranda is the perfect place to stay while you are in Cairns and Northern Beaches as many of the city’s main attractions are nearby. Two destinations that should be at the top of every visitor’s to-do list is the fabulous Kuranda Koala Gardens and the ever-popular Tjapukai Cultural Park. And don’t miss the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway and the Barron Gorge National Park.

There are several highlights for children too, including the Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park in Smithfield. If you’re intrigued by wildlife make sure you add the Cairns Tropical Zoo in Palm Cove on your trip list.

If the weather is good, follow the locals and make the most of the local natural destinations. Inhale the salty air, skim rocks in the shallows and catch some sunshine at nearby Clifton Beach in Clifton Beach and the Palm Cove Beach in Palm Cove.

After enjoying Kuranda, get a good nights sleep at one of the area’s hotels or serviced apartments. Make reservations for the Blue Lagoon Resort, Trinity Beach, the Amaroo at Trinity, Trinity Beach, or the Sea Change Beachfront Apartments, Trinity Beach.
