Cairns Babinda Boulders

Located about an hour's drive from the center of Cairns, the mystical Babinda Boulders are surrounded by tropical rainforest and cherished by locals as a relaxing retreat🌿. The emerald-green waters flow between rocks, creating tranquil pool-like areas where swimming is possible. It's the perfect natural playground for hot summer days. However, some areas have very strong currents and are marked as dangerous zones, so be sure to follow the signs indicating safe swimming areas⚠️. Picnic tables and restrooms are available, making it an ideal spot to unwind and enjoy nature. Don't forget insect repellent to guard against bug bites^_^. On the way, we stopped by Babinda Bakery to pick up pies🥧. They offer a wide variety, and everything looked delicious. Access is easy with a rental car, heading south from Cairns for about an hour. Free parking is available. Surrounded by the sounds of water and fresh rainforest air, Babinda Boulders is a hidden gem you must visit when exploring the Cairns area✨.
