📍Cairns 4D3N Chill Travel Guide

🚗 Transport Rent a car at the airport (even though the city is walkable, driving makes it easier to reach piers/beaches/stargazing spots!). ⚠️ Must-use a VISA chip credit card (magnetic stripe/UnionPay cards NOT accepted!). 🏨 Accommodation Crystalbrook Riley (3 nights) Modern, slightly French-inspired vibe 🏊‍♀️ Clean rooms, photogenic pool, great location (~AUD 400/night). 📅 Itinerary Day 1️⃣: Arrival + Night Market Check-in + explore the night market (skip the souvenir stalls—focus on the food section!). Cairns CBD is tiny (just 2 main streets!). Day 2️⃣: Great Barrier Reef Adventure (Quicksilver Cruise) Book via Taobao (better price!). Quicksilver = newer boat, fewer crowds. Free snorkeling; add-ons: Helicopter ride 🚁 (pre-book!) Seawalker helmet diving 🤿 ($198 AUD) Intro scuba ($198 AUD) No car? Book round-trip shuttle bus with your ticket! Day 3️⃣: Palm Cove Beach Day Palm Cove = Hawaii + France + Southeast Asia vibes! 🌴 Walk to Nunu Restaurant (chill brunch spot). Note: Water was oddly murky during our visit—hope you get the iconic turquoise! Day 4️⃣: Wildlife Day (Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary) Koala cuddles 🐨 + kangaroo feeding 🦘 ($30 AUD). Only Queensland allows koala hugs! Skipped rainforest tours (been there, done that!). 🍽️ Food Recs La Pizza 🍕 (decent, ~$45 AUD pp) Pho Viet 🍜 (night market entrance, ~$20 AUD pp) Imm Thai 🥤 (good milk tea, skip the fried wings! ~$30 AUD pp) Night Market Street Food 🧇 (waffles, churros, chicken skewers—ALL delicious! ~$13 AUD pp) Brunch Spot 🥑 (aesthetic, solid eggs Benedict! ~$35 AUD pp) 💡 Pro Tips Pack reef-safe sunscreen + a light jacket (mornings can be cool). Pre-book popular activities (helicopter/koala slots fill fast!). #CairnsTravel #GreatBarrierReef #KoalaCuddles #AustraliaFoodie
