Queensland
Queensland is Australia's second largest state measuring more than 1.72 million square kilometres, 25% of Australia's land mass, which is four times the size of Japan, nearly six times the size of the UK and more than twice the size of Texas in the US.
The Sunshine State
Queensland is known as Australia's Sunshine State. Brisbane, the capital makes an excellent base for touring the Gold Coast, Australia's Playground with everything you could possibly imagine at your fingertips.
Just a little farther north is the Sunshine Coast, with its understated sophistication and lavish fine-dining at Noosa.
Only a couple hours away is the largest sand island in the world, Fraser Island, where you can drive four wheel drive vehicles on the beaches and swim in any of the plentiful freshwater lakes and camp in permanent tents to experience the clear night skies - a memorable place to be.
Further north still, you can visit the secluded Mission Beach, the backpacker heaven of Airlie Beach or sail around the Whitsundays and immerse yourself in the breathtaking views of the world-renowned Hill Inlet. Revel in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef in Cairns, your gateway to the rainforests of Cape Tribulation and islands of Tropical North Queensland.
Whether you're after adrenalin-pumping adventure, relaxing on sun-kissed beaches, trekking through ancient rainforest or snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef, there's an experience waiting to become your treasured memory in Queensland.
