Cairns is a regional city in Far North Queensland. It was formed to serve miners heading for the Hodgkinson River goldfield, but experienced a decline when an easier route was discovered from Port Douglas. It later developed into a railhead and major port for exporting sugar cane, gold and other metals, minerals and agricultural products from surrounding coastal areas and the Atherton Tableland region. As of 2010, the population is approximately 150,920.
It is a popular travel destination for foreign tourists because of its tropical climate.
The Lagoon is a central meetingplace. You have there en nearby erverything. It serves as a starting point for people wanting to visit the Great Barrier Reef and Far North Queensland.
