Australia Vacations

As the sixth largest country in the world, Australia has something for every traveler. A country that is home to the Great Barrier Reef, incredible coastlines, wide rivers, ancient rainforests, mountain ranges, arid deserts, and bustling metropolises, it is as diverse as its landscape. Australia vacations are and always will be popular, and for good reason.

For a vacation that is stereotypically "Australian", the best option would be Australia all inclusive vacations in New South Wales. This area of Australia includes Sydney, where you can see Sydney Harbor and the famed Opera House. Sydney is known throughout the world for it's beautiful scenery, which include historical sites, the site of the 2000 Olympics, nightlife, cruises on the harbor and surrounding rivers, museums, art galleries, aquariums, as well as having beaching, water sports, boating,  gourmet restaurants and wonderful bars, shopping, and an all around sunny, happy climate. Visitors will find an exceptional selection of Australia all inclusive resorts in this city.

Another must-see site is Ayers Rock, also known as Uluru, located in the Northern Territory of Australia. The rock is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as it has many rock caves, ancient paintings, springs, waterholes, and rock caves. It is one of Australia's most recognizable natural icons, and it is particularly famous for it's appearance--it seems to change color throughout the day as it is stuck by different types of light. At sunset, it seems to glow red.  Many Australia all inclusive vacation packages offer trips to see the rock at morning and evening, when many consider it to be at it's peak of beauty.

The Great Barrier Reef is another one of the most recognizable landmarks of Australia. It is the largest coral reef system, and can be seen from outer space. The reef is an extremely popular tourist destination, and many feel that vacations in Australia wouldn't be complete without a trip to visit the reef. Thanks to it's vast animal and plant life, clear warm water, and plenty of guest facilities, tourist find it very easy to explore this underwater ecosystem, whether it's by snorkeling or scuba diving.

Aboriginal tourism is a way to learn about the world's oldest living culture. The Aboriginal people have a unique connection with the spirituality and wonder of Australia. Many people enjoy going to the "outback" and listening to the Dreamtime legends and myths by campfire. Australia vacations often allow packages that let tourists listen to the music, watch the dance, view the art, learn to live life the way that the Aboriginals do.
