Top 10 Things to Do in Cairns, Australia | Best Activities in Tropical North Queensland
What are the top 10 things to do in Cairns? What to do in Cairns? We answer these questions for you in this video! We show you the best things to do in Cairns! If you do any of the activities mentioned, make sure to comment below!
Here are the Top 10 Best Things to do from Cairns!
1. Walk on Cape Tribulation: This can be done via tour or you can rent a car and drive yourself (winding roads though). Make sure that you do NOT swim in the water during the summer months due to deadly box jellyfish, check online to see when it is safe to swim.
2. The curtain fig tree is a beautiful stop along the road and only about a two minute walk to get there from parking. For more information on how to get there and where it is located visit the link:
3. Snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef is a well known must do in Cairns! There are many different companies that will take you out to the reef, but after plenty of research we decided on Reef Experience because they included everything, including an introductory scuba dive (most companies charge big $$ for that) and a delicious lunch! They also go to two different reef locations which gives you an opportunity to see different types of corals and fishes! Check out their website for more information!
4. Paronella Park is a beautiful place but just watch out for the mosquitoes!! There is a inspiring and sad story about a dream then a tragedy of this place, if you want to find out more check out the website.
5. The Daintree Rainforest is the oldest living rainforest in the WORLD! Again watch out for those mosquitoes! There is lots of unique wildlife there! We were able to see a rare insect, a large spider, green ants, a dragon, and lots of flora and fauna. We did miss out on seeing a causeway though.
6. Scuba diving for the first time in the Great Barrier Reef was a mesmerizing experience! For more experienced scuba divers you may want to consider a scuba diving specialty boat (although snorkeling was amazing as well), but for those first time divers a great way to see the reef is through an introductory dive! Reef Experience made us both feel comfortable and didn’t pressure us to do anything. Highly recommend!
7. Millaa Millaa falls was extra strong while we were there due to the large rainfalls. You can swim at the falls but be aware of the the murky water at times and the strength of the waterfall. For information on Millaa Millaa and other falls check here:
8. Swim in a fresh clear creek! Apparently these are everywhere, all you have to do is venture one road away from the main highway (not sure which highway, but we were driving to the fig tree and Paronella Park that day)! These may not be easy to find but it is well worth the adventure if you do, thankfully our tour guide showed us the way!
9. Take a cruise along the Daintree River! We were able to see lots of crocodiles, including a very large one, a mama one (the one in the video), and lots of babies! There was also fish and many unique plants!
10. Watch the bats come out at dusk and fly over the city! This was such a crazy experience to see the sunset and watch as a clear sky was filled with thousands of bats flying overhead. They are only in certain locations in Cairns, but if you are in the CBD you will likely see them!

Beware These Worst Beaches for Shark Attacks!
Shark attacks seem to be on the rise in many parts of the world, therefore, you might want to steer clear of the following known shark-infested waters. Statistically, these are among the most dangerous beaches for deadly shark attacks.
1. Pernambuco, Brazil
The shockingly high attack rate in these waters appears to be due to over-fishing. Without enough food supply, the sharks have begun to sample other forms of fare to satisfy their relentless hunger.
2. Second Beach, South Africa
The beach is popular among shark-seeking tourists and cage divers. Tour operators dump boatloads of bloody chum in the water order to entice the great whites. You definitely don’t want to surf or swim anywhere near these boats and their chum lines.
3. New Smyrna Beach, Florida
More than 238 shark attacks have been documented at Florida’s (surprisingly) popular New Smyrna Beach. In fact, 15% of worldwide shark bites have occurred here. Most of the bites are courtesy of baby bull sharks that favor these waters. To date, none of the recorded attacks here have been fatal.
4. Velzyland Beach, Hawaii
About 41 different shark species that frequent Hawaii’s waters including aggressive specimens like bull sharks and great whites. The last fatal shark attack at this beach occurred in 1994 when a tiger shark attacked a surfer. More recent attacks on surfers have been reported, but none fatal.
5. New South Wales, Australia
This region, which includes famous Bondi Beach, has recorded more than 170 unprovoked shark attacks and more than 50 fatal attacks, and great white shark encounters are more common here than in other parts of the world. Due to the position of the continental shelf, swimmers and surfers are in close proximity of deep waters where these potential predators cruise.
6. Fletcher Cove, California
Fletcher Cove may be picturesque, but it is also the scene of 142 unprovoked shark attacks, including some recent fatalities. Scientists are convinced that the fish-strewn waters in this region are ideal feeding grounds for large predators like the great white.
7. Reunion Island, Indian Ocean
This island has had more than 10 attacks in a recent two-year period, three being fatal. This has prompted island officials to close the beaches to swimmers and surfers. Experts aren’t sure why the sharks are biting people with greater frequency.
8. Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
Since 2005, there have been more than fifty attacks. In fact, researchers have claimed that South Carolina’s waters are just as dangerous as Florida’s when comparing the swimmer-to-attack ratio. Their waters are attractive to species like tiger sharks and bull sharks.
9. Coffin Bay, Australia
The name says it all. Don’t swim here unless you fancy a meeting with a great white. Recently an abalone diver was attacked and killed by two great white sharks. His body was never recovered.
10. Surf Beach, California
A nineteen-year-old surfer was attacked and killed a few years ago by a great white shark believed to be 18 feet in length. The waters here are home to seals, which attract great whites in large numbers.
