Hi all, looking to find a cheap caravan park in cairns for us to staagin for a couple of nights before we head up the cape. For those nights we will not be looking for a resort, that may be for the way home.

cheers. Craig

Hey Craig,

Not a cheap option, but Cairns Coconut resort is a top spot. Lots of activitys for the kids (if applicable) otherwise just a really nice, clean leafy invoroment.

We stayed there in 2011 on our way to the cape. Liked it so much we stayed there again on the way home. There is also City Caravan Tourist Park, they are cheap. But we stayed there in 09 and would never go back. There were a lot of perminant reserdants and the place was not very tidy. Left a lasting impression that is for sure.

The place may have changed, as it has been 4 years. Just my 2 cents, based on personal experance. Have a great trip, i would go the the cape every year if i could, it is gods country up their.

We also stayed in Crystal Cascades in Cairns back in 2010 on our big trip.
From memory we had 4 nights there. I don't remember it being anything awful, but it is a few k's out of town.
Makes it a bit quieter too.

If you are looking for somewhere to leave you van, how about a storage place? Might get good rates for a few days or so...

But when you are staying in Cairns I will give another vote for the Cairns Coconut BIG4. If you kids are old enough to look after themselves you won't see them.. Great for the family!
