Queensland
AUSTRALIA
Queensland, the Sunshine State, promises azure skies, balmy temperatures, and nature that seems pulled straight from dreams.
Whether you’re basking on white-sand beaches, exploring hidden waterholes in mountain paradises, or snorkelling and diving with the vibrant marine life of the Great Barrier Reef, Queensland offers the ultimate destination for beach lovers and mountain enthusiasts alike.
Rainforests and Ancient Wonders
At 180 million years old, the Daintree Rainforest invites you to disconnect from the modern world and immerse yourself in nature’s embrace. This primal realm, reminiscent of Jurassic Park, is where the image of dinosaurs emerging from the undergrowth seems entirely plausible. Here, you can experience the unique thrill of river snorkelling with turtles and the elusive platypus.
The Great Barrier Reef, one of the seven wonders of the natural world, has something for everyone. In the shallow, blue seas of the archipelago, scuba diving and snorkelling bring you face-to-face with Green and Loggerhead turtles, while the luxurious Whitsunday Islands offer isolation and complete decompression from a busy life.
Queensland’s Beaches and Natural Heritage
Stunning coastlines, adorned with exotic islands, invite you to savour the surreal surroundings of untouched beaches, where powder-soft sands meet the gentle caress of waves. Queensland may not have towering peaks, but it boasts five of Australia’s eleven World Natural Heritage areas. Here, you can indulge in birdwatching, exploring glow-worm caves, rock climbing, and stargazing among lush treetop canopies, with breathtaking summit views of untamed national parks.
Let your adventurous heart roam free in Queensland. While there are must-see destinations, we recommend letting your private guide take you to hidden local spots, creating unforgettable moments. As someone once said, “Queensland has a piece of paradise to suit every traveller,” and we couldn’t agree more.
