By April things generally ease off and we can have some great runs of dry weather, but yes you can usually expect some rain around this time too. Lizard Island is a great suggestion because its generally drier north of Cairns. Lizard is more exclusive - Kate Hudson loves it there! If you like sailing you can't beat the Whitsundays there are 74 beautiful islands to choose from and has some great resorts too.<BR/>PeacePeacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01918706662170181788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208363740181710621.post-38496991791377218192009-01-10T10:40:00.000+10:002009-01-10T10:40:00.000+10:00Beautiful picture.

Can you please tell me, is it still rainy season in early to mid April? And does rainy season mean nothing but torrential rain or just an hour or so a day? Is it warm? Any islands you would especially recommend? I've been tipped Lizard and Heron Island.<BR/>- Caitlin (Roaming Tales)Caitlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01118423043759580862noreply@blogger.com
