Best places to visit in Australia

Australia, a dream country/continent, 14 times bigger than France. Hello distances! It's best therefore to choose your itinerary well before heading there. Where to begin? Don't panic: our well-informed travellers are here to help you. Thanks to their advice, you can prepare your trip to Australia according to your wishes by clicking on the places to discover. It all depends on which Australia tempts you...

The one with the cities? If so, Melbourne, a cultural and sporting city near the Great Ocean Road, will seduce you, just like the chic Sydney, with its opera and its prized beaches. Canberra, the green capital with modern architecture, is worth the detour, not forgetting Perth, a prosperous and relaxed city, isolated in the West.

The Australia of open spaces? Red earth, bush and unusual geological formations? Aim for the central region, with the symbolic and must-see site of Uluru. Kings Canyon, Devils Marbles, Wave Rock, Bungle Bungle or Flinder Ranges will, no doubt, also figure on your list.

The Australia full of adventure and unique encounters? Head to the north, to the heart of the Aboriginal tribes; rock paintings and crocodiles are waiting for you at Kakadu National Park. Cross the Kimberley savannah in a 4x4, stand awestruck in front of the horizontal waterfalls, not forgetting the sunset astride a camel on Cable Beach in Broome. 

The Australia of surfing and nautical activities in idyllic locations? Go kayaking on the Whitsunday Islands, dive in the Great Barrier Reef or Ningaloo Reef, its lesser-known equivalent to the west, with sharks and whales. Greet the dolphins at Monkey Mia. Are you a surfer? East, West, South coasts: the spots are bustling, whether it's the waves of Byron Bay, Margaret River or Bell's Beach...

The Australia off the beaten track? Choose Esperance, the pink lake and the beaches of Cape Le Grand. And Tasmania? This forgotten little part of New Zealand will bowl you over with its exceptional fauna and flora.

Now it's up to you to create your unique trip!

Monkey Mia is a resort in the wilderness area of Shark Bay, which is on the UNESCO world heritage list. This place is known for the bottlenose dolphins who come to visit the shore at fixed times to be fed by the rangers.
I would describe Exmouth as a strategic point, a sort of staging post if you want to explore Ningaloo Marine Park and the Park Range National Park.
An idyllic beach? Turquoise Beach. A superb diving spot? Turquoise Beach. Calm? Turquoise Beach. The beach is in the heart of the Cape Range National Park. 
Ningaloo Reef is another, 300 km long, Australian coral reef, on the west coast, 1,200 km north of Perth.
Karijini is a national park located in Western Australia's Hamersley range and lying 1,050 km north of Perth.
Once again, Eighty Mile Beach is aptly named, and should even be called "220 kilometre beach". This completely flat beach is in the north-west of Australia.
Its a medium-sized town of 11,500 people situated in the Kimberley region. Broome is one of the only civilised destinations in this deserted region.
Discovered by a film crew in 1983, the Purnululu National Park, in the north of western Australia, is famous for its dome-shaped, fossilised sand formations and mineral rich landscape. 
One of the biggest permanent rivers in the Northern Territories, the River Victoria offers beautiful landscapes of wild nature.
Port Macquarie is a charming coastal city situated on the coastline of New South Wales, but its natural beauty has unfortunately been spoiled by mass tourism.
A laid back surfers' paradise.
A nice, pleasant city but nothing of great interest.
Just opposite Hervey Bay and 45 minutes away by boat, Fraser Island is the largest sand island in the world.
The southern entry point for the Barrier Reef, Bundaberg is an average industrial city located a few kilometres from the coast.
Rainbow Beach is beach on the Sunshine Coast in east Australia. It is special because you can drive there.
Airlie Beach, a town in Queensland, is the departure point for a dream cruise.
The second city of the country, Melbourne has the reputation of being more European than its rival, Sydney, with a young and trendy atmosphere.
 The capital of Tasmania, Hobart is a charming city by the sea, with a very European atmosphere, superb architecture and a relaxed ambiance.
Kangaroo Island, Australia's third biggest island, is a sparsely populated haven of peace with rich flora and fauna.
A small town where several travellers go because the region is well-known for fruit picking work!
