Why it's worth checking out
Upolu Nature Reserve sits on Arlington Esplanade in Clifton Beach, one of the lovely northern beaches near Cairns in Tropical North Queensland. A flawless 5-star rating from 5 reviews speaks to a reserve that has genuinely delighted those who visit.
The appeal is lovely, unspoilt coastal nature — a nature reserve with native surrounds, a genuine favourite for a walk, some birdlife and connecting with the outdoors in the laid-back Clifton Beach area near the coast. It's a lovely, free outing.
Nature reserves have changing conditions, tides and seasonal considerations (and the Cairns wet and dry seasons differ greatly), so check current details and any advisories before you go. Bring water, sun protection, insect repellent and comfortable shoes, and take your time enjoying the natural surrounds.
