When it comes to bucket list experiences, Australia is home to some of the top contenders. Here are 10 that shouldn’t be missed in a lifetime.
This UNESCO-listed architectural treasure is a world-recognised building, making it a must see building just for that reason. Jutting into Sydney harbour, it’s visible from many of the city’s waterside spots and you can get up-close at the Opera Bar. Bagging tickets is the best way to appreciate the acoustics but there are guided tours too.
Crossing the heart of the country and spanning parts of the Outback few people get to see, Journey Beyond’s The Ghan is one of the world’s top train journeys. travelling between Adelaide and Darwin, the three-day trip on the luxurious sleeper stopes in remote parts of the country, where off-train experiences add to the wonder.
ULURU
As the world’s largest monolith, Uluru is truly extraordinary and all the more iconic for its position right in the Red Centre of Australia. rising from flat terracotta plains, the sacred rock can no longer be climbed due to its deep cultural significance, but there are several trails around the base circling the rock.
Stretching from the northern tip of the continent right down the East coast to Brisbane, the world’s largest coral ecosystem is the equivalent size of 17 million football fields. Cairns is your main gateway to immerse yourself in a trip.
Named after the most iconic creature, the island is separated from the mainland by just 8 miles of ocean making it a haven for wildlife.
Western Australia’s Coral Coast harbours an enchanting natural wonder known as Ningaloo. A “beauty rival” of the Great Barrier Reef, it’s the largest fringing reef in the world, accessible from the shoreline from where visitors can swim out and snorkel it. UNESCO-listed for its biodiversity, its electric-blue waters are home to more than 450 types of marine life, including the gentle whale sharks that linger between March and July.
SYDNEY HARBOUR BRIDGE
Together with the Opera House, the dramatic steel arch is the iconic image of Australia that international visitors won’t want to miss on a trip Down Under.
DAINTREE RAINFOREST
Daintree is one half of the World Heritage wonders that includes the neighbouring Great Barrier Reef. In places, the world’s most ancient tract of rainforest meets the reef on the Daintree Coast. Its deep biodiversity is best explored in the company of a First Nations elder who can show travellers how the forest’s custodians look after the land using techniques dating back 60,000 years.
Meandering between the cosmopolitan cities of Melbourne and Adelaide, the 150-mile Great Ocean Road is one of the world’s most scenic drives. The heritage-listed route skirts a coastline of soaring cliffs and windswept beaches, with spectacular stops along the way numbering the Twelve Apostles sea stacks and Otways Bush, eucalyptus forest and fern gullies harbouring Aussie creatues like koalas and bandicoots.
BYRON BAY
Travellers can brush shoulders with celebs at the star-studded Byron Bay, sun-kissed surfer’s paradise that epitomises Australia’s outdoor coastal lifestyle.
