With more than 320 days of sunshine and the Great Barrier Reef, Australian Outback and ancient rainforests as backyards, Townsville is the ideal location for adventure and relaxation.
As the largest urban centre in North Queensland, Townsville is a major commercial and tourism hub, providing opportunities for both business and recreation. Townsville's economy is diverse, ranging from education to retail and manufacturing. Townsville is small enough for you to escape the hustle and bustle of capital cities, yet large enough to host major events, including sport, music, theatre and festivals.
Townsville enjoys a tropical climate with less rainfall than elsewhere in the Tropics due to the city's geographical location. Winter in Townsville brings blue skies, warm days and cool nights due to south easterly trade winds. Summer brings balmy temperatures and increased rainfall with thunderstorms usually starting in late October.
For more information, visit Living in Townsville.
Cairns is the principal centre of Far North Queensland with a population of more than 240,000 people. About a 2-hour flight from Brisbane, Cairns is surrounded by lush World Heritage listed Wet Tropics rainforest to the west and north and by the Great Barrier Reef to the east.
With unique natural and built environments, Cairns has a broad range of amenities to suit multiple lifestyles. Embrace the tropical environment by visiting the Great Barrier Reef and discover where the reef meets the rainforest in the majestic World Heritage listed Daintree Rainforest. Find your place in neighbourhoods that are sprawled along the beachfront, nestled beside the mountains, or mere minutes from the heart of the city. Get a glimpse into the region’s rich history and culture at the local museums and art galleries or take a trip to the charming village of Kuranda after taking in the amazing views from the scenic cableway.
Cairns itself offers a range of parks, more than 450 kilometres of cycleways, and extensive tropical botanic gardens to explore. Cairns is a major commercial, industrial, educational, retail and entertainment centre. Tourism, health care and construction are major sectors of the Cairns economy, with the Cairns Airport having the highest passenger to population ratio in Australia.
