Atherton Tablelands in Focus
As Tropical North Queensland’s lush highland plateau, Atherton Tablelands is a vibrant green oasis of dramatic mountains, untouched rainforest, delicious produce, and jaw-dropping waterfalls rising more than 700 metres above sea level.
Cairns in Focus
Cairns has grown from a ramshackle port town to a stylish modern city – the capital of Tropical North Queensland, with a year-round outdoor lifestyle. Here you can bar-hop, rock-hop, or island-hop all on the same day as Cairns puts the ‘jungle’ in ‘urban jungle’.
Great Barrier Reef in Focus
As temptations go, it’s hard to look past Tropical North Queensland’s extraordinary Great Barrier Reef – dotted with tropical islands where the only sounds are the waves lapping the shore and pristine ocean bordered by boundless expanses of white-sand perfection.
Roseau In Focus
The capital’s bustling and vibrant atmosphere can be attributed to its status as an epicentre for foreign trade of local goods such as bananas, grapefruits, oranges, and cocoa, which ebbs into the visitor experience through flourishing, winding local markets, introducing tourists to the everyday lives of residents. Colonial French architecture predominantly adorns the city’s colourful buildings, typified by a French Creole design that perfectly blends with the island’s Kalinago heritage. Guests can best explore these fascinating influences by delving into the likes of the Old Market Square – the intersection of commerce, culture, and heritage. Gazing upon the towering Old Lady of Fair Haven of Roseau, you can’t help but notice the Gothic Romanesque and Caribbean stylistic appearance that characterises the cathedral, which first opened in 1916 and has become a key pillar of the local community, holding widely attended religious services. A microcosm of the island’s lush, verdant landscapes, Roseau is also home to the Dominica Botanic Gardens, whose mesmerising flora is indicative of the island’s warm tropical climate. The peaceful gardens feature 40 acres of swaying bottle palms, delicate and fragrant orchids, and a beautiful Carib Wood tree, which produces the endemic national flower of Dominica with its vivid scarlet colour. Roseau offers you a new side to The Nature Island, bustling with welcoming people, distinguished architecture, and a deep insight into Dominican culture.
Carolina Shag in Focus
The Carolina Shag was declared the official state dance of South Carolina in 1984; however, its origins date back all the way to the 1930s to the traditional Shag, which was then slowed to the rhythm of the Carolinas.
