When you head to Australia, you are heading to a massive land of contrasts and natural beauty. Here you’ll find gorgeous beaches with dazzling waters, alluring sand islands, red-earthed deserts, rugged natural parks and manmade rainforests. It’s as though all of geography came down for a visit at the same time and decided to never leave.

Of course, Australia isn’t all natural beauty and stunning vistas; there are fantastic manmade structures and the cities welcome you with their ‘down under’ charm. Most main Australian cities are coastal while its capital is nestled inland.

For those who enjoy some thrills, you can visit the theme parks of the Gold coast. And the Great Barrier Reef off Cairns has always attracted those with a draw of the underwater ocean life.

While Australia is synonymous with beer the world over, the country has some fantastic wineries. You can stroll along rolling hills, vineyards and also stop to sample the food off the gourmet trail.
