Aqualuna Restaurant, Cairns QLD

Be captivated by the immense shark tank and leafy outlook of the rainforest-inspired landscaping.

Whether dining indoors or outdoors, visitors to Cairn’s new Aqualuna restaurant are in line for a unique Far North Queensland experience. With the backdrop of a shark tank inside, and a rainforest-themed setting outside, the new dining establishment is set to attract both locals and visitors alike. The unique dining space with its underwater feel is part of the new Cairns Aquarium and Marine Research Centre which opened last year. Diners will find themselves captivated by the wildlife featured in the immense shark tank, complemented by the leafy outlook of the rainforest-inspired landscaping.

The restaurant’s main dining area has been enclosed with Alspec Hawkesbury Multi-Fold Doors. Configured to stack outwardly, the Hawkesbury doors allow the entire indoor and outdoor areas to be merged or separated as required. The stacking doors enable the unique event space to be easily configured as to suit corporate events, small or large groups and weddings, while ensuring all get to enjoy the aquatic centrepiece.

With perimeter framing in mind, the Hawkesbury Multi-Fold door design enables them to be easily adapted to the façade of aquarium building. Featuring top-rolling operation with heavy duty Centor E3A hardware, the doors are guided at floor level through channels which are concealed when the doors are closed. The inclusion of Weatherseal technology ensures rain, wind and the warm tropical air can be kept outside when the doors are closed.

No matter whether viewing the wonders of the reef or the relaxing atmosphere of the rainforest, visitors to Aqualuna will be treated to an unforgettable dining experience showcasing the charms of tropical Far North Queensland.
