🌴 Save these ideas to stay cool this summer!🌞
.
.
1️⃣ Float The River. Cool off with @backcountryblissadventures and float the Mossman River. As the #DaintreeRainforest canopy shades you, the gentle current takes you downstream where every twist and turn is a blur of green magic. 
.
2️⃣ Discover #WooroonooranNationalPark on two wheels. Shaded trails wind through rainforest, passing creeks and streams - this is one ride you won’t want to miss.

3️⃣ Dine out on the Cairns Esplanade. Grab a cold drink, fresh tropical food and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of this waterfront precinct. With so many options to eat, you will be spoiled for choice. 
.
4️⃣ Go up in elevation and head for the @athertontablelands . A summer oasis filled with waterfalls, tropical produce, epic views and plenty of adventure. 
.
5️⃣ Treat yourself to the ultimate summer delight with a scoop of tropical ice cream. From @emeraldcreek.icecreamery  to the  @daintreeicecream and @mungallicreek, you will find some of the best tropical flavours this side of the equator. Sweet, refreshing, and oh-so-good! 🥭
