Yorkeys Knob cruise port guide
Situated in tropical north Queensland, Cairns is the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest. These two UNESCO World Heritage Sites are why Cairns is the fourth most popular destination for international tourists in Australia. Enjoy the city's year-round tropical summer weather as you relax beside the man-made lagoon on the Esplanade. Then, experience one of Cairns' two main drawcards: Head into the rainforest in nearby Kuranda, which you can reach by taking the Skyrail Cableway or the Scenic Railway. Cruise to Cairns and take the half-day trip to Green Island — you'll be snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef within an hour of leaving the city.
About Yorkeys Knob
Yorkeys Knob is a small seaside suburb north of Cairns in tropical Queensland, with a marina used by some smaller cruise vessels. The area provides access to the Great Barrier Reef, the Daintree Rainforest (UNESCO), and the Kuranda mountain railway — the same world-class attractions as Cairns port. The Trinity Inlet area hosts the largest cruise ships.
