Guest guest Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 HI Nx Rob is so right about Cairns,Beautiful. My hubby's parents live at Clifton Beach which is next to Palm Cove. Best bet is to go for the self contained apartment as food tends to be quite expensive. You can see the trawlers off the coast but seafood costs a small mortgage. There is also night markets in Cairns along the esplanade. The free open pool which is also along the esplanade is fantastic as well. There is also lots of small car hire places but the thing to watch is that you can't take them across the river into the Daintree Rainforest. You have to go across on a barge and the barge operator gets paid a spotting fee so they will get fined when they get back with the car.. Hope your friend has a great time, I am so lucky to have family as it makes it a little cheaper.
