I can't describe how amazing this coast is. Victoria is a beautiful state in southern Australia has a temperate climate. It took my breath away to see the sights and the mighty Southern Ocean. I had no idea there were so many rain forests (temperate). Each one was un-spoilt and very "natural". Bi...

The Entrance Island Light is on a hexagonal frame tower resting on a square stone base. It was built in 1892. This lighthouse has a twin on Bonnet Island and together they guide ships through Hell's Gate which is a narrow (120 meter), shallow, and dangerous entrance into the huge Macquarie Harbor on...

Sydney Aquaruim is fantastic. If you are going to spend money going into an attraction then this is definitel one to see. It is big so takes a while to see but there is lots to keep you occupied. The huge shark tank is great, as is the great barrier reef tropical section. I was a bit apprehensiv...

The Taronga Zoo is an amazing zoo especially for being in a big city. The kangaroo, wallaby and emu enclosure was my favorite because you can get up close to the animals and some may even come out to the walkway. It was fun watching the emu chase the kangaroos and peck at their feet - it reminded ...

Healesville is about an hour and a half out of the city. Healesville Sanctuary is one of the three animal parks you can visit in Melbourne. The first is the Melbourne Zoo, which is close to the city. The second is the open-range zoo in Werribee, and the third is Healesville Sanctuary.

The area of Sydney known as Darling Harbor is a very busy tourist area that includes the Sydney Aquarium and the Monorail. But if you are looking for a little bit of peace then I recommend the Chinese Garden of Friendship.
The garden was build by the Chinese community of Sydney and is a beatif...

Went to the Jenolan caves because we thought it looked moderately intersting. They're a set of limestone caves in the western Blue Mountains, with stalactites etc. Went into two of the caves; there are guided tours of the caves that run at different times of day, so we ended up with a random selecti...

We met our guide in the visitor centre and went into the briefing room for some safety tips, and to receive our visibility vest and eye protection. As this is a working brewery, they cannot be too careful. I visited on a Saturday so the brewery was not in operation; however, we still needed our safe...

I traveled to the Blue Mountains with Australian Eco Adventures. This tour starts with a pick up from your hotel, and then takes you to breakfast at Featherdale Wildlife park. There, you can pet koalas and feed kangaroos! You don't get a ton of time at Featherdale, but that's okay because there i...

If your visiting Narrabri (it's usually a town most people pass through taking the inland road to Queensland), a great day trip is to visit Mt. Kaputar National Park. You can camp, picnic or stay in a little hut on the mountain. Great for bushwalking, seeing kangaroos & birds, and enjoying the smell...

Bendigo is a lovely historic town of around 100,000 people. It is mainly an Anglo-Saxon based population with some Chinese and a scattering of other nationalities.
Being an old goldrush era town, there is the "The Central Deborah Gold Mine" for tourists to visit and you will see many old gold min...

I wasn't expecting to be able to walk along the dam itself, but was pleasantly surprised to be able to do this. There was a fee, but it wasn't much from memory. The views from the dam wall are awesome. I was amazed at how such a thing could be made in such a place. And the girl in the information ce...

Hi Lauren,
As mentioned by the previous review we also have Sculptures by the Sea at Cottesloe Beach in Western Australia. The 2007 display was held March 8th to March 18th and was brilliant, it may be held around the same time in 2008 although I would email the organisers for up to date...

Housed in what appears to be an old warehouse on the wharf at Beauty Point is Platypus House, which has a great display of both Platypus and Echidna.
Once you enter the building you pay a fee of about AU$25 per adult. Initially I balked at the price but remember this is a conservation project ...

18 km away from Fitzroy Crossing is the beuatiful small Geikie Gorge National Park. It was named after Sir Achibald Geikie, but the traditional owners, the Bunaba people call it Darnku.
It is a beautiful and spectacular ravine in the Kimberleys. It was formed by the Fitzroy River during t...
