Must-See Queensland Highlights

Plan your journey with insights from those who know Queensland best—this is your gateway to wonders both natural and cultural.

Great Barrier Reef

Snorkel, dive, or sail this iconic UNESCO World Heritage-listed marvel. Beneath the shimmering surface, discover incredible marine life and a spectrum of coral gardens that must be seen to be believed.

Cairns

Your northern gateway to adventure. Wander through vibrant markets, unwind on palm-fringed beaches such as Port Douglas or Trinity Beach, or set out on reef and Daintree Rainforest excursions. Cairns is a meeting point of tropical ease and boundless exploration.

The Whitsundays

Find paradise among 74 dreamy islands set in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef. Glide by yacht across turquoise waters, relax on radiant Whitehaven Beach, or snorkel directly from Catseye Beach to look for turtles feeding on seagrass.

Daintree Rainforest

Step into one of the world’s oldest living rainforests—where the trees have stories to tell and nature takes centre stage. The Daintree is rich in Indigenous culture: connect with local Kuku Yalanji guides for a unique perspective on bush foods, traditions, and the spiritual significance woven through every part of this landscape.

K'gari (Fraser Island)

Experience the untouched beauty of the world’s largest sand island, with glimmering freshwater lakes, endless beaches, and ancient rainforest growing from sand. Wildlife and wild places abound here.

Kuranda Scenic Railway

Journey through emerald rainforest, past tumbling waterfalls, and arrive in a village bustling with art, culture, and local flavour. Discover deeper connections in the Cairns region—this is the traditional land of the Djabugay; Yirrganydji; Buluwai, Gimuy Walubara Yidinji and other First Peoples. Their wisdom and artistry are woven through the region’s art, stories, and landscapes. A visit here isn’t complete without learning firsthand from the custodians of these lands.

When to Visit

Queensland’s tropical climate makes it a delight to visit any time of year. For the best Great Barrier Reef experience, plan your journey between late April and October when conditions are at their finest. Peak “dry season” during these months ensures beautiful weather and vibrant marine life visibility.
