Cassowary Coast Region (Innisfail, Tully, Cardwell and Mission Beach), Far North Queensland The Cassowary Coast region features world-heritage rainforests, secluded beaches, tropical islands, rugged coastal ranges and fertile flood plains covering 4701 square kilometres.

The Cassowary Coast's rainforests, tropical beaches and islands and its closeness to the Great Barrier Reef make it a must-see tourist destination. The region's closeness to Cairns and Townsville add to its liveability and attraction for investors, retirees, families and tourists, many of whom have been seduced into staying after experiencing the relaxed outdoor lifestyle, the warm climate and spectacular scenery.

Come live in the Cairns/Cassowary Coast region where the rainforest meets the reef, with so much to do on weekends such as scuba diving, hiking, waterfall hunting, and water skiing.
