| The rivers and lakes here are wonderful destinations for leisure activities. Fisher people will have no doubt heard of Lake Tinaroo and the record barramundi the waters here regularly yield. Best of all the lake is open for barramundi fishing all year round. It’s also a great source of black bream and red claw yabbies! Get out onto the water in a canoe or a boat – day and night canoe tours are available from Yungaburra on the waters around Tinaroo, you can hire canoes from Lake Tinaroo Caravan Park, plus you can paddle your own timber handmade canoe at the Mareeba Wetlands. |

| Our region’s climate is just ideal for air action – the clear blue skies are inviting and the number of sunny days per year is very high. At Mareeba, the weather bureau records 300 sunny days a year making this the ideal launching place for microlights, hot air balloons and passenger aircraft. Mareeba WarbirdsWarbird Adventures is where you can see and fly in the magnificent legendary airplanes of WWII. Book an adventure flight in one of four different styles of aircraft including the P-40 Kittyhawk, or check out the amazing restoration process underway on various aircraft and wander around the museum pieces. The annual Warbirds Airshow takes place here in August and is not to be missed. Hot Air Baloons Mareeba is also the hot air ballooning capital of the world, the region’s ballooning companies carry more passengers annually here than anywhere else on earth and once you experience drifting across the patchwork of fields, lakes and rivers at dawn its easy to see why this uplifting experience is one you will want to repeat again and again. | |
