Located in the North-Eastern part of Australia, Queensland, the sunshine state, includes both sunny tropical coastal areas and arid outback territory. It's strongly celebrated for its richly diverse landscapes, friendly locals, and a plethora of World Heritage Sites. Renowned for the breath-taking Great Barrier Reef, ancient Daintree Rainforest, the stunning Whitsunday Islands, and the vibrant and sunny city of Brisbane, Queensland offers adventures like nowhere else. Its range of wildlife, including koalas, kangaroos and crocodiles, add to the charm and excitement, making this Australian state an unforgettable travel destination. The distinct blend of natural beauty, outdoor adventure, and steady warm climate truly make Queensland a jewel in Australia's crown.

Australia, affectionately known as the Land Down Under, is nestled in the Southern Hemisphere, covering the world's smallest continent. This expansive country is recognized for its diverse geography - from barrier reefs, tropical rainforests, and vast deserts to bustling urban cities such as Sydney and Melbourne. Australia is globally famous for its unique wildlife, including kangaroos and koalas, the architectural marvel of the Sydney Opera House, the stunning beauty of the Great Barrier Reef, and the sacred indigenous heritage of the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. The country's warm climate, captivating landscapes, iconic landmarks, and friendly locals make it a must-visit destination.

When traveling to Australia, both the United States and Canadian Governments advise exercising normal security precautions. This means that you should stay vigilant about your personal safety, maintain awareness of your surroundings, and follow the local laws and customs.

Let the devils take Brisbane, it's boring. You need to go to Fraser Island off the coast of Queensland, it's the largest sandy island in the world. (About 3/4 hour north of Brisbane) One day is not enough, it's best to book 2-3 days. It is also close to Bundaberg, where depending on the season you can observe whales / watch turtles hatch. And dive on the coral reef. Gold Coast (1 hour south of Brisbane) has amusement parks and beautiful beaches with white sand. Beautiful hinterland with rainforests and waterfalls. Shopping. It's like Brisbane, but 10 times better (except for the nightlife).
