Queensland Top Things To See
• Enjoy some of the best beaches in the world. The Sunshine Coast has miles of untouched wilderness and beaches with surf. Mission Beach has 14km (9 miles) of white sand, while the expanse of sand and sea around Fraser Island is heaven-sent.
• Appreciate nature in all its glory from lush green mountains to rainforests and scenic wilderness areas. Nature lovers will appreciate the Lamington National Park in the McPherson Mountains and the Currumbin Bird Sanctuary.
• Examine excellent examples of Aboriginal rock art amongst the escarpment country near Laura in the Cape Yorke Peninsula. In Brisbane there are many places to appreciate and buy indigenous art including galleries in New Farm and the city.
• Spot some of the country's famous native wildlife, such as koalas, which are often seen dozing in gum trees in bush areas such as Noosa National Park, Magnetic Island and the Daisy Hill Koala Sanctuary near Brisbane.
• Be gob-smacked by the beauty and size of the Great Barrier Reef, one of the world's great natural wonders. Stretching for 2,000km (1,200 miles) along the Queensland coast, it offers great views from both above and below, where unique plant and animal life can be found.
