Tours are available that will pick you up from the door of your chosen family accommodation establishment. There are so many things that you will want to share with the family while staying in Cairns. Firstly, the Great Barrier Reef lies just offshore and everyone will want to spend at least one-day diving or snorkeling there. This is a great family day out. A family picnic to some pristine mountain river or piece of rainforest is also very popular and places like the Atherton Tableland or the Mossman gorge will provide the perfect backdrop.

All around the Cairns region, you will find family restaurants so you don’t have to cook if you don’t want to. All the major fast food chains like Sizzler, MacDonalds, Pizza Hut, etc all have several outlets in Cairns and these are always a favorite with the kids.
