Cairns → Trinity Beach: key facts

Private transfer, Cairns Airport (CNS) to Trinity Beach: the car (1–3 passengers) is €75 and the van (4–8) is €110, a set price for the vehicle that does not change at checkout. Expect 21 km on the road via 1; about 25 min off-peak, 25–35 min in rush hour.

Pickup: The driver waits in the arrivals area of the terminal your flight lands at (T1 International or T2 Domestic), after baggage reclaim, holding a sign with your name. The booking includes flight monitoring and an hour of free waiting from touchdown; your bags are loaded for you.

Trinity Beach is a seaside suburb in the middle of the Northern Beaches, about 20 km north of the airport. The car takes the Captain Cook Highway past Holloways Beach and Yorkeys Knob turn-offs, then leaves the highway onto Trinity Beach Road, which runs east through the suburb down to the sea. The trip normally takes around 20 to 25 minutes. Most of the route is dual carriageway, with roundabouts at the main suburb entrances.

The beach is a sheltered bay framed by Earl Hill to the south and a small headland to the north. Vasey Esplanade runs along the sand with apartments, cafes and restaurants on the inland side, and most holiday units have their entrances on the Esplanade or on the streets just behind it. A grassy foreshore with palms and picnic areas separates the road from the beach. Kewarra Beach lies to the north and Yorkeys Knob, with its marina, to the south.

Public transport instead: Translink (Kinetic Cairns) bus 111 from Cairns City bus station to Trinity Beach, operates 7 days (timetable effective from 26 September 2022), 1 change. No public bus from the airport terminals; Translink route 111 runs from the Cairns City bus station via Smithfield and Trinity Park to Trinity Beach and Kewarra Beach.
