However, I found it was cheaper to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.viator.com\/en-AU\/tours\/Cairns-and-the-Tropical-North\/Cairns-Aquarium-Tickets\/d754-58087P1\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.viator.com\/en-AU\/tours\/Cairns-and-the-Tropical-North\/Cairns-Aquarium-Tickets\/d754-58087P1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">purchase tickets through Viator<\/a> than directly with Cairns Aquarium. The reason being that Cairns Aquarium applies a booking fee on direct bookings that isn&#8217;t present on <a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Viator\u4e3b\u9875\" href=\"https:\/\/stillaslife.com\/zh\/goto\/viator\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">\u9886\u822a\u8005<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can purchase tickets at the door, but pre-purchasing will help to streamline your time there (on the day we visited, there was a queue out the door of people waiting to buy tickets) and in Covid days where capacity is more limited, pre-purchasing your tickets ensures you won&#8217;t miss out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viator.com\/en-AU\/tours\/Cairns-and-the-Tropical-North\/Cairns-Aquarium-Tickets\/d754-58087P1\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.viator.com\/en-AU\/tours\/Cairns-and-the-Tropical-North\/Cairns-Aquarium-Tickets\/d754-58087P1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Book tickets on Viator.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Theme<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Entrance fees aren&#8217;t the sole contributor to value though. What about the aquarium theme? Does it tell a story and do it well? Or is it just a bunch of marine life in really big tanks?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most aquariums have a theme beyond simply housing sea creatures. At Cairns Aquarium, the attractions follow the unique theme of a drop of rain in Far North Queensland. Waterfalls in the form of rain, landing in the tropical rainforest before making its way through to creeks, streams, and rivers to mangrove flats and then out to the Great Barrier Reef and onwards to the depths of the Coral Sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"1000\"

I don&#8217;t think the story is fully explained though and parts of it can be easily missed.

These are all paid parking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three parking lots nearby but the closest is probably the Lake St Car Park which costs $1.80 per hour at the time of writing and is located adjacent to the Cairns City Bus Station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m28!1m12!1m3!1d3892.856420123541!2d145.77110255020065!3d-16.917902136189813!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!4m13!3e2!4m5!1s0x6978669203cf4bb5%3A0x872130cc723ef106!2sLake%20Street%20multi-storey%20car%20park%2C%20104%20Lake%20St%2C%20Cairns%20City%20QLD%204870!3m2!1d-16.9210785!2d145.7752928!4m5!1s0x6978668defaaf1bb%3A0x3a401d993c56e47a!2sCairns%20Aquarium%2C%205%20Florence%20St%2C%20Cairns%20City%20QLD%204870!3m2!1d-16.9183631!2d145.7736455!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sau!4v1628899062904!5m2!1sen!2sau\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"450\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>More off-street parking options and their current rates are listed on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cairns.qld.gov.au\/water-waste-roads\/parking\/off-street-carparks\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.cairns.qld.gov.au\/water-waste-roads\/parking\/off-street-carparks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Cairns City Council website here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Should You Pack For A Cairns Aquarium Visit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer to this question will depend on your plans and whether you are taking children or not. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Basics<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;d recommend taking a small day bag with some water and your camera gear as a starting point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m a big fan of my <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/stillaslife.com\/zh\/goto\/fill2pure-advanced-travel-safe-800ml-filtered-water-bottle\/\">Fill2Pure Advanced Filter Water Bottle<\/a> and use it pretty much everywhere to avoid using single-use plastic bottles. Part of the reason I like this one is that it does squash a bit for travelling when space is tight, and it can be drunk out of by both sucking the straw and squeezing the bottle. This is much easier than filtration bottles or straws that rely solely on suction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u9910\u996e<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are only going to spend a few hours here before or after lunch, you won&#8217;t need to pack much, but a few snacks is definitely a good idea. If you are going to stay over lunch but aren&#8217;t going to eat at Dundee&#8217;s Restaurant, then definitely bring a packed lunch to save yourself walking somewhere else for food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Footwear<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Otherwise, I&#8217;d recommend some comfortable walking shoes. There are plenty of places to sit down for a break, but even so, the floors are hard and you will likely be on your feet a lot so you want to be comfortable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skechers.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u65af\u51ef\u5947<\/a>. Their GoWalk and GoRun range are so light and breathable, but even their more dressy shoes are very comfortable for long days on your feet. I\u2019m onto my fifth pair of Skechers now and wouldn&#8217;t go back!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hygiene<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In this day and age, I&#8217;d also suggest a good quality, natural hand sanitiser that isn&#8217;t going to dry out and damage your skin. I love the <a href=\"https:\/\/stillaslife.com\/zh\/goto\/arianrhod-aromatics-natural-hand-sanitiser\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/stillaslife.com\/goto\/arianrhod-aromatics-natural-hand-sanitiser\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Arianrhod Aromatics Natural Hand Sanitiser.<\/a> It feels more like you are using a hand moisturiser than a hand sanitiser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Best Places To Stay Near Cairns Aquarium<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are so many choices for accommodation in Cairns. As I mentioned earlier, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.agoda.com\/the-hotel-cairns\/hotel\/cairns-au.html\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.agoda.com\/the-hotel-cairns\/hotel\/cairns-au.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Ramada by Wyndham<\/a> is directly opposite Cairns Aquarium which makes it the most conveniently located for a visit to Cairns Aquarium, but there are a lot of other great choices nearby as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I personally really like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/au\/oaks-cairns.en-gb.html\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/au\/oaks-cairns.en-gb.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Oaks on the Esplanade<\/a>, it is very conveniently located for most things on a Cairns visit and is an extremely comfortable hotel. It&#8217;s a 10-minute walk direct to the aquarium, or a leisurely stroll along the esplanade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other great options include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.au\/Cairns-Hotels-Novotel-Cairns-Oasis-Resort.h84251.Hotel-Information\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.au\/Cairns-Hotels-Novotel-Cairns-Oasis-Resort.h84251.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Novotal Grand Oasis Resort Cairns<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/au\/ibis-styles-cairns.en-gb.html\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/au\/ibis-styles-cairns.en-gb.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Ibis Styles Cairns<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/au\/mantra-trilogy.en-gb.html\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/au\/mantra-trilogy.en-gb.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Mantra Trilogy Cairns<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Find more options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.agoda.com\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.agoda.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">\u96c5\u9601<\/a> <\/strong>&#8211; I found they were usually the best price for Cairns hotels with a few exceptions.<\/li><li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/trip.com\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/trip.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Trip.com<\/a><\/strong> &#8211; Sometimes these guys have some amazing deals &#8211; we got the Oaks in Cairns for half the price of booking direct WITH the Oaks loyalty diiscount.<\/li><li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.au\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Expedia<\/a><\/strong> &#8211; Generally the next best prices after <a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Agoda\u9996\u9875\" href=\"https:\/\/stillaslife.com\/zh\/goto\/agoda-home-page\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">\u96c5\u9601<\/a> outside of <a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Trip.com\uff08\u643a\u7a0b\uff09\u4e3b\u9875\" href=\"https:\/\/stillaslife.com\/zh\/goto\/trip-com-ctrip-home-page\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">Trip.com<\/a> deals.<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Booking.com<\/strong><\/a> &#8211; Has the broadest range.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">That&#8217;s It<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s my comprehensive Cairns Aquarium review all done and dusted.
