Lifestyle & Community

Why would you live anywhere else?

The relaxed and informal lifestyle, warm climate and spectacular scenery have seduced many visitors into staying. There is no commuter rush and any drive is framed by beautiful views of this tropical area. Outdoor activities, pets, clean air and opportuities for growing things are some of the major advantages of a rural lifestyle.

The small towns of the region boast a wide range of sporting, cultural and recreational activities and facilities. The multicultural background of many residents adds to the vibrancy of community events and lifetsyle.

A wide range of community groups provide social and recreational opportunities for residents and help increase the strong sense of community in the area. The Cassowary Coast Regional Council also works to improve the lifestyle of residents and the experience of visitors.

There is a strong spiritual life evident in the number of religious groups active in the region.

The small number of services unavailable within the region are only a short distance away in the cities of Cairns or Townsville.
