Cairns Esplanade Lagoon Foreshore

The Cairns Esplanade Lagoon Foreshore offers a fantastic estuarine fishing experience right in the heart of Cairns, QLD. This picturesque spot is perfect for anglers looking to cast a line from the foreshore, particularly at dawn or dusk when the fish are most active. The incoming and run-out tides create ideal conditions for targeting a variety of species, including bream, flathead, grunter, queenfish, trevally, and the sought-after barramundi. While fishing here, be mindful of the tide movement and wind, as they can greatly influence water clarity and fish behaviour. Whether you prefer bait fishing or lure fishing, this location provides a vibrant fishing atmosphere amidst the stunning scenery of the estuary.
