Came to Palm Cove for three weeks in the wet season and surprise surprise we got 300mm of rain in 24 hours. What do with the family for the day when you have little ones wanting to burn off some energy. Did some googling and thought might go check out Cairns Museum, not sure what it will be like but glad we did. When you first arrive you don't realize what is on offer when you start on the second floor. The further you go through the more you find. Even found out where the term Furphy came from. Much more to this place than I first expected when I walked in. We spent over two hours here. Even sat out on the balcony and kids had fun with coloring competition and arts and crafts supplied while enjoying the balmy weather from under cover while eating some fruit we had brought with us. The staff are passionate as they are volunteers and really engaging. One offersed to get the tiger shark jaws down for a photo which my daughter loved. Then got her in a little sailing boat and rocked it around to simulate the ocean. Definitely worth the extreamly reasonable entrance price. Recommended for a rainy day excursion.

Quite an interesting place.. Touch screen is good value. Shows a great picture of Lee Marvin with a huge sword fish in the 70's

Little museum, but interesting pics about the first times, how people used to visit/watch the reef.
