Tropical Far North Queensland coastal areas offer an array of accommodation in resorts, hotels and backpackers. It's jam-packed with diversity. Get back to nature and relax, or get a rush and try an action adventure tour or enjoy the rich heritage and culture of Far North Queensland. Tropical Far North Queensland is the one and only place in the world where two World Heritage Listed attractions lie side by side. From rainforest to reef lie the Great Barrier Reef and the Wet Tropics Rainforest. In some parts of Far North Queensland, the rainforest touches the reef, stretching right down to the far north's white sandy beaches.
