About Australia

Australia is a beautiful, varied and vast country. It attracts visitors from New Zealand and the rest of the world, all, eager to explore the buzzing cities, the laidback countryside, the stunning beaches or the desert wilderness known as the Outback. The pacific and Indian Oceans surround the country.

Highlights – What shouldn’t I miss in Australia?

Being the 6th largest country in the world, there’s no way you’ll be able to see everything in one visit. But here are some of our suggested highlights:
 
  • The East Coast of Australia: Visit an area known as the Coral Coast, popular for diving and water sports and typified by long stretches of unspoiled sandy beaches. The world famed Ningaloo Reef is just offshore.
  • The North Western Region: Said to be one of the last real areas of wilderness left in the world, it is a largely unpopulated region. However there are hidden gems her with some of the best beaches in Australia: Cable Beach being one of them.
  • The area surrounding Perth is perfect for holiday makers with a range of water sport activities on offer from Scuba diving to snorkelling, yachting to fishing. There really is something for everyone.
  • For four-wheel drive adventures and camping under the stars, head to Australia’s Golden outback. The largely unchanged aboriginal villages and stunning landscapes are a sight to behold.
