Things to Do in Cairns in September.

September is definately one of the better months to visit Cairns. The suns out, but it's not too hot, the nights are cooler, but not cool enough for a jumper and the waters starting to get warm - not that it ever really gets cold in Cairns.

it would be foolish to come to Cairns at this time of the year and not visit the Great Barrier Reef, maybe even do it 3 times with our "Amazing 3 Day Reef Pass", it allows you to choose 3 out of 6 different reef cruises all for the one low price. You can potentially save over $200 with this pass.

Or if sailings more your thing then maybe try our cruise to "Michaelmas Cay and Paradise Reef". This cruise has a great reputation as a really fun day out and has always been one of Cairns favourite tours. Speaking of Cairns' favourite tours, have we mentioned the "Kuranda Skyrail and Scenic Train" yet. It's definately a must do in Cairns, and a tour the whole family will just love.

The annual humpback whale season in Cairns is still going strong in September. While it's possible to encounter whales on pretty much any reef cruise, we now have a dedicated "Cairns Whale Watching" cruise - with sightings guaranteed or you can go again for free.
