Australia: Jewel Of The Southern Hemisphere

Australia is a magical place full of stunning vistas and friendly people

, but is most famous for its mile upon mile of stunning beaches and beautiful oceans. You will find all you require from Australias beaches. You will find surfing paradises, breathtaking underwater scenery and miles of golden sand to top off your perfect beach body.

Surfing is one of Australias most beloved pastimes and you must give it a try. Renting boards is cheap and easy as surf rental shops can be found all over Australias sun-drenched coast. Surfing is an absolute joy, and while hard work to begin with you are soon rewarded with majestically cresting that first wave in. Or, more likely, scratch that, youll be wobbling about the place, struggling to stay standing but the sense of achievement and sheer rush of adrenalin will have you charging back into the sea for more. Surfing is also extremely good for fitness (didnt you wonder how all those surfers you see on TV have the chiselled bodies of Greek Adonises?). For an extremely rewarding and healthy pastime check it out!

Another draw of Australia is its stunning array of wildlife. From the weird and wonderful to the downright terrifying, Australia has it all; cuddly koalas, poisonous spiders, the enigmatic wallaroo and the iconic kangaroo. There are many wildlife reserves and parks where you can get intimate with the best of Australias nature. There are also many fascinating zoos dotted around the country where you can see some of the more dangerous specimens such as the funnel-web spider.

Another reason to travel to Australia is to meet its infectiously friendly people who are welcoming and kind. Experience an authentic Australian barbecue, resplendent with a vast array of Aussie favourites while sipping on an ice cold 'stubby' or can of lager. Australians are and friendly and inquisitive bunch and will not shy away from conversation. They are warm, friendly and giving and most definitely one of the countrys biggest draws.

A must visit for all travellers to Australia is Ayers Rock or Uluru as the locals term it. Known as the heart of Australia, and lying more than 200 miles from Alice Springs, the nearest large town, this rock ascends out of the largely featureless desert which surrounds it.
