Queensland's Top Holiday Spots

By By Peter Dazzer


Queensland is a province of Australia, in the northeast of the country. The capital city is Brisbane.

For people who don't know Queensland, it is marketed as the state where Australia shines. It is hot, sunny and has (to my mind) the best beaches in Australia.

I had a brilliant idea of what folk may suggest going into this story, however it had a few surprises. Here is what everybody came up with and they can all be holidayed in best by campervan hire Qld:

The Great Barrier Reef

No surprises that this came top of the list. The Great Barrier Reef stretching from Central Queensland on the Eastern Coast of Australia to Papua New Guinea is the biggest living organism in the world. It is a natural wonder of the world and feted for the great thing about the coral and the creatures that inhabit it.

What was surprising was the amazing ways that were recommended to experience the reef. Snorkelling and diving were well-liked, as were chopper rides above the reef so you can actually gauge the dimensions of this incredible place.

The Whitsundays

The Whitsundays are a group 74 islands off the Central Queensland coast. The islands supply a vast range of tropical nirvana getaways for visitors of all nature. Suggestions for the Whitsundays included snorkelling and diving, as well as swimming with Dolphins off Hamilton Island. Sailing is also a favored past time in the Whitsundays and a selection of boats offer sailors of all capability the chance to experience a fantastic day out.

Fraser Island

Fraser Island is the largest sand island in the world. No this does not imply it is merely a big pile of sand. It has shocking bushland, lakes, beaches and wildlife. Any Queensland bucket list must include a 4WD camping outing here, but bring masses of toilet roll as bogs are few and far between. Similarly don't feed the dingoes otherwise the rangers will be running after you. You do get back to nature here.

The Sunlight Coast

There are lots of places to surf in Queensland, however taking lessons in Noosa on the Sunlight Coast was a preferred choice. Noosa used to be a knackered fishing village but is now a hip, recent town offering the most recent fashions and food on famous Hastings Street.

Brisbane

Brisbane, capital of Queensland, has its own unique experiences. There are only 3 bridge climbs in the world and one of them is on the Storey Bridge in central Brisbane, which enables you to get a really unique view of this city. A short drive and ship ride from the CBD is Moreton Bay, a fabulous water way and group of islands that offer camping, fishing, surfing, canoeing, sailing, diving and snorkelling at its best. No surprises here that it hit the Queensland bucket list.

The Gold Coast

The Gold Coast is a hugely popular vacation resort. It offer 26 kms of beaches with Surfers Heaven is iconic for its party and fun lifestyle. The Gold Coast is also famous for its theme parks and these naturally hit the bucket list. Warner Bros Mvie World, Sea World, Dream World, Wet n ' Wild, White Water World and Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary offer a large range of rides and experiences for every age.

A less familiar part of the Gold Coast for travellers is Currumbin. This an extremely well liked surf spot for locals and when the tide is out the creek turns into a water wonderland. The most strange bucket list proposal was walking through the rock pools at Currumbin in the rain.
