Hotels in Tropical North Queensland, Australia
Tropical North Queensland hugs Australia's northeast coast, famous for the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest. Winters (May to October) are dry and sunny, with temperatures around 77°F (25°C)-perfect for snorkeling at the reef or hiking the Daintree's Mossman Gorge. Summers (November to April) are hot and rainy, hitting 86°F (30°C), but you'll find cheaper rooms and can still explore Cairns' Esplanade lagoon or take a night cruise to see glowing sea sparkle plankton.
