Day Trips in Australia
Edit This
are as varied as the landscape and culture of this massive country. You'll find that the type of activities that are available to you will depend upon where on the island you're located. Read on for a brief overview of some of the most popular types of day trips in Australia.
Beach
Bondi Beach is the single most popular beach in the entire world, and any trip to the Sydney area would be incomplete without visiting this attraction. Keep in mind, if you come from the northern hemisphere, that Australia's summer period stretches from about November through February. The beach may be closed during other times of year.
Desert
The interior section of Australia is mostly desert, but the best day trip is from Darwin in the northern part of the country. Visit the famous Litchfield National Park by a guided tour bus in order to see some of the most impressive and beautiful desert sections of the entire continent.
Rainforest
Daintree National Rainforest is the oldest continuously living rainforest in the world. Located about 2 hours outside of Cairns in the northeast section of the country, Daintree features the widest variety of plant and animal species in the entire continent. Parts of the rainforest extend right to the Great Barrier Reef along the beach at the northwest coast as well, making this day trip well worth the time for anyone who is interested in either of these landscapes and attractions.
