Tropical North Queensland - where the rainforest meets the reef:

"One of our very favourite places in Australia"

PREVIEW OF THIS UPCOMING POST

This future post will follow our upcoming research expedition to this destination.

We have visited this region many times and we have even lived in Cairns for a year. This upcoming expedition will allow us to get the very latest information and photos for this important post.

We have included this preview to ensure that anyone exploring our overall blog can see all the most highly recommended Australian destinations amongst our posts albeit with one or two in preview form.
