Dive SpotDiscount Hotel Deals in October to Dive Resorts in Cairns Australia

Cairns, a small city named after a former governor of Queensland, is located in the tropical side of Australia and is worldwide renowned as one of the top scuba diving spots. This reputation is generated by the close proximity of the Great Barrier Reef, the largest live structure of the planet (a huge coral system made up of over 2,900 coral reefs stretching on about 1,600 miles or 2,600 kilometers!). Due to the amazing richness and unique aquatic life from the coral reefs, Cairns is visited yearly by lots of holiday makers and as result in the entire region have been developed numerous beach resorts.

Cairns is settled not far away by the Tropic of Capricorn, so the climate features only two seasons – one wet (from December to April) and one dry (between May and November). In the region is possible to appear monsoons in the wet season and the temperature variation is low, ranging from about 31 Celsius degrees (88 Fahrenheit degrees) in January to 26 Celsius degrees (78 Fahrenheit degrees) in July. Due to the tropical climate visiting Cairns is great year-round, still October has some characteristics that turn it into one of the best periods of time to enjoy very rewarding holidays in the region.

In October the weather in this part of Australia is wonderful, with day average temperatures of 29-30 Celsius degrees (82-85 Fahrenheit degrees) - just great to enjoy the stunning beaches from nearby, practice different water sports (snorkeling and scuba diving are, of course, top pastimes) or to take tours to other very interesting attractions in the region such as the Daintree National Park (where can be seen numerous plants and animals specific to the rainforest habitat), Cape Tribulation, Cape York Peninsula, Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park, or Rainforestation Nature Park. There can be also taken trips on the Kuranda Skyrail Rainforest Cableway, a journey that allows holiday makers to observe along 7,5 kilometers (4,7 miles) the wonders of rainforest. The region is so rich in biodiversity that it has been designed a World Heritage Site and consequently visiting it is a "must do" activity during vacations in Cairns.

Travelers can take advantage on the fact that most accommodation units are offering fantastic discount hotel packages in October. Tour operators try also to lure more travelers in the region and as result there are also available numerous dive deals, both day trips to reefs and longer diving cruises which combine pleasures of sailing with very rewarding experiences beneath the waters. Hotels apply several strategies to gain more clients like room rates with 15, 20, or even 25% discount or FREE nights added to the longer stays (packages like "Stay 3 & Pay 2!", "Stay 4 & Pay 3!", or "Stay 7 & Pay 6!" are more and more popular amongst vacationers). There are also some beach resorts that include in packages deals like dive day trips to the Great Barrier Reef! Other scuba fans can choose from cruise packages that include accommodation on modern yachts and a lot of diving hours, so everyone can find an arrangement that fit at best to its needs and vacation budget.
Holiday makers looking for affordable vacations should consider very seriously Cairns, the tropical pearl of Australia, and benefit both on the very convenient hotel deals and discount dive packages available in October!
