Cairns Backpackers Accommodation

Cairns is a hugely popular destination for backpackers and there is a large backpack-centric (yes, we just made that word up) infrastructure to cater for 18-35 year old budget travellers who want to have fun or just lie in the sun. If you're travelling the east coast of Australia most people will recommend Cairns as your first or last stop.

There are plenty of things to do in Cairns and plenty of places to stay, but if you're looking for a bed we recommend you visit the Carins Backpackers website as they have one of the biggest ranges of affiliates in Australia and a lot of Cairns Hostels have signed up with VIP.

Most Cairns hostels are pretty web savvy and have their own websites, so rather than list them all here, we've listed some resources and directories below:
