All really nice, but Darwin is probably my favourite overall. Great combo of year-round warmth, sunshine and rain with a strong contrast between wet and dry seasons. Plus a great storm season from Oct - Dec. Broome is too dry and Cairns and Townsville don't get that many storms or so I've heard.

Townsville easily, for its nice milder temps and moderate rainfall.

Townsville due to being the most sensible, while also being adequately wet.

Fuck extreme heat. Also it gets the most storms because the Qld coast sucks shit.

Those are all excellent climates for tropical standards, but Townsville is the one that seems to be the best.

Cairns - no frost, no true drought season, and warm year-round. Darwin is a close second.
