When to go to Cairns?
The region, known as the Tropical North Queensland, normally experiences two seasons: the green season (November to May) with monsoonal rains, and the dry season (the rest of the year). Dress is informal. Bring sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, swimwear, and walking shoes if intending to hike. Although usually balmy, the highlands and some other areas can be chilly (even cold) during winter months (June through August), making a warm jumper or jacket a welcome companion.
