Raining in Cairns and don't know what to do? Check out what tours are great to do in the wet.

Cairns has hundreds of tours departing the city daily. But what happens when it rains? Most of these tours don't stop running, and some of them are actually better to do in the rain. So don't worry if you are visiting Cairns in the wet season. There are plenty of activities for you to do.

We, from Tourism Cairns have picked the best 3 tours to do in the wet. We believe that they are even more fun when it's done in a rainy day. Have a look at the tours below.

1 – ATV Ride

An ATV ride is the perfect tour to do in a wet day.

This is actually when you should do an ATV ride, on a rainy day. The ATV vehicles are designed and built to be ridden through wet roads, rivers and mud, so make sure you choose a wet day to do an ATV tour. You will have such a fun experience and you will never do it in any other way.

Don't forget to bring some spare clothes to get changed after the ride. You will need it. But make sure you get as muddy as possible during your ATV adventure, and make the best of it.

2 – Daintree Rainforest

The Daintree Rainforest is actually a good tour to do on a rainy day. Bring an umbrella or a rain coat if you don't want tot get wet, but the rainforest is actually quite special on a wet day.

The rainforest is characterised by heavy rains and moderate temperatures, hence the coinage “rain-forest”. This type of forest is considered one of the most complex ecosystems on earth and it has a wide diversity of fauna and flora. This is one of the reasons why the Daintree Rainforest is so special.

So travelling to the Daintree Rainforest on a rainy day means that you'll see and experience the real rainforest in its own ideal environment. And it does feels different and more special in a wet day. So make sure you choose to do this tour on a rainy day.

3 - White Water Rafting

White Water Rafting is one of the best tours to do in the wet season.

After some rainy days the rivers pump full of water and they flow much faster, making it the perfect condition to do some rafting. And don't worry about the rain, you will get wet anyway.

Rafting in the wet is quite an adventurous and exciting experience. You'll probably have to paddle less but will have to hold on more. Be ready for some adrenaline and a great time.

The above tours are our top 3 best activities to do in the wet. But there are lots more tours available to do on a rainy day. Don't be shy to go out in the rain and have a fantastic time.
