Practical details
Why it's worth checking out
Williams Esplanade runs along the beachfront at Palm Cove, one of the most beautiful of the northern beaches near Cairns in Tropical North Queensland. A near-perfect 4.9 rating from 7 reviews reflects its standing as a much-loved spot.
The appeal is one of the loveliest beachfronts in the tropical north — the palm-lined Williams Esplanade at Palm Cove, with its melaleuca trees, gorgeous beach, cafes and restaurants, a genuine favourite for a stroll, a meal, a swim or simply soaking up the beautiful setting. It's a lovely, free outing.
Beachfronts in the tropical north have changing conditions, tides and seasonal considerations — including marine stingers in the warmer months — so check current details and any safety advice before you go. Bring sun protection, water and follow local swimming advice.
