Public barbecues across the city will be reopened this weekend following advice from Queensland Health.

Barbecues at the Cairns Esplanade, beaches, Babinda Boulders, and Lake Morris will be open from tomorrow morning.

The remaining barbecue facilities in the Cairns Regional Council area will be reopened by Sunday.

Users are encouraged to bring their own cleaning and sanitising products to give barbecues a clean before and after use in line with good hygiene practices.
