The Lagoon
Safe swimming and family fun year round. You can swim in the beautiful, 400 square metre lagoon pool with sandy beach edges or laze about on the lush grasses and timber decks.
The lagoon is always supervised by qualified lifeguards with no marine stingers in sight.
It’s just like a real beach, surrounded by all the convenience of the CBD.
Free Fitness
Go for a walk or run on the scenic boardwalk and see wild Lorikeets and sea birds – remember to stop at the purpose built exercise stations along the way.
You can play beach volley ball, learn a new trick at the skate/BMX park or just relax and listen to free live entertainment just by walking out the door of your Vision Cairns Esplanade apartment.
Muddies Playground
Children and families love Cairns Esplanade’s Muddies Playground, just two minutes walk from Vision Cairns Esplanade Apartments. Muddy’s Playground has a range of fun wet and dry play equipment including the colourful “Muddy” Mudskipper and adults can comfortably supervise children from under the shady trees surrounding the playground. Muddies has special facilities for children in wheelchairs, clean onsite toilets and the Mudskipper cafe as well.
Free Entertainment
Every weekend, starting on Friday nights, the Cairns Esplanade has free, live entertainment and activities for the public to enjoy.
It’s a great chance to make use of the free public BBQ facilities and enjoy family time or meet some locals.
Free Things to Do
Cairns holiday visitors are welcome to join FREE Fun Fitness classes held on the Cairns Esplanade almost every day. On Saturdays you can browse colourful markets and buy some local art, jewellery and products.
