The Top 4 Places to Visit in Australia

Australia is the smallest continent on this planet, however, it is the home to some of the most heavenly sites, dreamy landscapes, and bustling wildlife. It is the sixth-largest country in the world, and one vacation trip to the Land Down Under isn’t possibly enough to explore its beauty and to see all that it has to offer. If you are planning to visit Australia soon, for work or leisure, there are a few spots that you should consider for Australia Travel packages. According to a popular travel guide magazine in Australia, listed below are the top four must-see places in the country:

1.  Visit the Great Barrier Reef

The Great Barrier Reef is Australia’s most famous attraction, and rightfully so deserves the number one place on this list. It is also one of the seven wonders of the world and stretching across almost 3000 km, it a diver’s dream. If you enjoy water sports at all, you are bound to have a great time at the Great Barrier Reef. It is home to several water activities including diving, snorkeling, rafting, kayaking, parasailing, and fishing. The Great Barrier Reef is what dreams are made of, and you truly shouldn’t be missing out on this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

2. Take a trip to Fraser Island

Fraser Island is one of the coolest places to visit in Australia – it is the largest sand island in the world and boasts a 75-mile-long beach with parts of it that can only be visited on a boat. It is an island that has everything – quite literally, as it has shipwrecks, tidal pools, woodlands, and mangroves. It is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and unlike other sand beaches is home to a variety of flora and fauna. The island is so vast in its offering that you’d require at least three days out of your trip to explore it to the fullest.

3. Enjoy opera at The Sydney Opera House

If you feel you have connected with nature to the fullest and are now looking for an opportunity to dress up and experience a night full of music and entertainment, the Sydney Opera House should be the next place you visit. It is a multi-venue arts performing centre, and its unique architectural design makes it an iconic contribution to Sydney’s landmarks. It is also the most photographed building anywhere in the world and hosts a staggering 1600 performances every year. You can enjoy ballet, theatre, dance, music, and opera alongside delicious local and international cuisines at the Opera Kitchen and other restaurants and bars in the building.

4. Drive to the Barossa Valley

The Barossa Valley is home to some of the most famous vineyards in Australia and makes for a picturesque drive through the countryside. It is a fifty-minute drive just north of Adelaide and encompasses the towns of Nuriootpa, Angaston, and Tanunda. Some of the best and most acclaimed wineries that you can visit include the Grant Burge, Wolf Bass, Yaldara, and Penfolds. The best way to make the most of your trip is to rent a car and a driver, and take a road trip to the region and spend a few days in some of the luxury cottages the place has to offer which include ‘The Louise’ and ‘Rogasch Cottages’ amongst many more.

Conclusion
