Far North Queensland, commonly abbreviated as FNQ, is a coastal region in the north of Queensland. Sometimes colloquially called Tropical North Queensland (though parts of Central Queensland are also within the tropics), you'll find nice warm 25-30°C sunny days year round, warm coastal waters, some of the world's oldest rainforests (including the oldest) and a gateway to the Great Barrier Reef.
Far North Queensland is huge.
