As a major port city and railhead used to export sugar cane, gold and other minerals and agricultural products, Cairns is a transportation hub. Nestled on the northeastern coast of Australia, a car rental in Cairns positions travelers to tour some of the most beautiful country in the world. Its tropical climate and proximity to the Great Barrier Reef and Far North Queensland make it a natural starting point for travelers and while there is some public transportation in this part of Australia the bulk of travelers prefer the autonomy provided by a Cairns rental car.
