🇦🇺 Cairns 4D3N Travel Guide

‼️ Check weather forecasts before booking flights/hotels - avoid rainy season! 🏨 Day 1: City Exploration ✈️ 8 AM arrival → Stayed at Crystalbrook Riley (¥1100/night, early check-in luck!). ✅ Pros: Modern, great value | ❌ Cons: Twin beds are tiny! 🍽️ Lunch at Salt House: Oceanfront vibes but mediocre food. Skip their cocktails! 🚫 🌊 Afternoon: Hotel chill → lagoon swim (Cairns is perfect for lazy pool days!). 🐠 Day 2: Great Barrier Reef Adventure 🚢 Sunlover Cruise + 10-min helicopter ride + Intro Dive (¥2470 total). Free activities: Semi-submarine, glass-bottom boat, snorkeling. 🚁 Helicopter: Views were okay, but photos = insta-gold! (Pilot selfie hack!). 🤿 Diving: 10/10! One-on-one Chinese-speaking guide. Choose certified/non-certified options carefully! 🤿 Snorkeling: Water’s deep (~5-6m)—wear a life jacket if inexperienced! 🏝️ Day 3: Fitzroy Island (Hidden Gem!) ⛴️ Day trip (¥400, 30min boat ride). Nudey Beach: Australia’s "Best Beach"—turquoise water = unreal! 🤩 🍹 Foxy’s Bar: Avg food but pretty cocktails + epic views. 🪂 Day 4: Skydiving + Cocktail Crawl Skydiving (¥1625) + GoPro video ($179): Views = reef + city from above → farmland under parachute. Worth it! 🍸 "Drunk Challenge" along the Esplanade: Little Sister & Hecho En Mexico = best cocktails (~$20 each). #Cairns #Sydney #GreatBarrierReef #TravelAustralia #Skydive
