Kuranda Heritage Markets

Nestled in beautiful tropical rainforest on the traditional lands of the Aboriginal Djabugay tribe, Kuranda Heritage Markets offers an authentic Tropical North Queensland experience that's been delighting visitors for over 20 years. The all-weather covered market lets you explore locally produced souvenirs, arts and crafts, jewellery, gemstones and clothing while surrounded by the sounds and sights of the ancient rainforest. Local Water Dragons are frequent visitors, adding to the unique atmosphere. The market combines shopping with wildlife experiences, featuring on-site attractions including Birdworld Kuranda and Kuranda Koala Gardens where you can get up close with native bird species and cuddle koalas within the sanctuary of the rainforest. Opening hours can vary during school holidays — see the market website or contact page before you travel.
