HMAS Cairns is a naval base of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) located in Cairns, Queensland. Although used regularly as a port-of-call since before World War II, a permanent RAN presence was not established until 1971, when a maintenance and support base for patrol boats was set up. This was formally commissioned in 1971 as a minor war vessel base.
