Chiang Mai
Experiencing the merging of the past into the present in Chiang Mai where locals are proud of the city's 700-year history. Its rich traditional heritage and unique culture is a perfect foundation for the development of the city. Chiang Mai is one of the few places in Thailand where it is possible to find in the heart of the city centuries-old chedis and temples next to modern convenience stores and boutique hotels. The original city layout still exists as a neat square surrounded by a moat with vestiges of the fortified wall and its four main gates offering prime access to the old town.
For years, tourists have mistaken Chiang Mai as the northern junction and the base from which they can explore other provinces. The phrase "a day in Chiang Mai is enough to see things around" was common. Today, tourists are surprised by the fact that there is always something new to discover Chiang Mai. Intriguing diversity among ethnic tribes coupled with breathtaking scenery makes Chiang Mai one of Asia's most attractive tourist destinations. Two weeks in Chiang Mai may not be long enough for serious travelers.
The old city of Chiang Mai with its fascinating indigenous cultural identity such as diverse dialects, cuisine, architecture, traditional values, festivals, handicrafts and classical dances is a prime location in its own right. In addition, the presence of hill tribes and their wealth of unique cultures enhance Chiang Mai's distinctive diversity.
Chiang Mai is also blessed with pristine natural resources of mountains (dois), waterfalls, and other nature-based tourist attractions. At the same time, Chiang Mai residents are warm, gracious and congenial providing authentic hospitality making visits memorable and meaningful. Moreover, visitors from all walks of life can collect handicrafts of silk, silver and wood produced locally as timeless souvenirs. Chiang Mai is a place where both backpackers and luxury tourists can enjoy themselves to the fullest.
The Past
Chiang Mai literally means new city and has retained the name despite having celebrated its 700th anniversary in 1996. King Meng Rai founded the city as the capital of the Lanna (A Million Rice Fields) Kingdom on Thursday, 12th April 1296 during the same period of time as the establishment of the Sukhothai Kingdom. King Meng Rai the Great conferred with his friends, King Ramkhamhaeng of Sukhothai and King Ngam Muang of Phayao before choosing the site where the capital of the Lanna Kingdom was to be founded.
From then, Chiang Mai not only became the capital and cultural core of the Lanna Kingdom, it was also the centre of Buddhism in northern Thailand. King Meng Rai himself was very religious and founded many of the city's temples, which are still important today.
At the height of its power, the Lanna Kingdom extended its territory far into Burma and Laos, and southwards to Kamphaeng Phet a province above Sukhothai.
The Burmese conquered the Lanna Kingdom in 1556 ending the dynasty founded by King Meng Rai that lasted over 250 years. As Burma had occupied Chiang Mai for nearly 200 years, Burmese architectural influences are visible in many temples. At the end of the 18th century, King Taksin the Great regrouped the Thais in the south and finally drove the Burmese out with the help of King Kawila of Lampang thereby regaining Thai independence from Burma. Chiang Mai was then governed by a succession of princes who ruled the north as a Siamese protectorate under the Chakri dynasty. In the late 19th century, King Rama V appointed a high commissioner in Chiang Mai and it was only in 1939 that Chiang Mai finally came under the direct control of the central government in Bangkok the same time the country was renamed Thailand.
In the past, Chiang Mai was only accessible by river and elephants. More convenient access was achieved only when the railway line was completed in the late 1920's. Moreover, the first motor vehicle driven directly from Bangkok arrived in Chiang Mai in 1932. Such isolation was more favorable to Chiang Mai as it helped to nurture and preserve the unique Lanna culture.
When we look at Chiang Mai today, it is the economic, cultural and communications hub of northern Thailand complete with excellent infrastructure, good roads, by passes and road tunnels, and reliable communications infrastructure.
The Setting
Chiang Mai, with an altitude of approximately 310 meters above sea level, is situated approximately 700 kilometers from Bangkok on the Mae Ping River basin. Surrounded by high mountain ranges, the city covers an area of approximately 20,107 square kilometers and is the country's second largest province. Chiang Mai borders Myanmar on the north, Lamphun and Tak Provinces on the south, Chiang Rai, Lampang and Lamphun Provinces on the east and Mae Hong Son Province on the west. The terrain is mainly comprised of jungles and mountains, which are home to the hill tribes. In addition, wildlife and exotic flora may be found in the national parks.
Most of Chiang Mai's mountains are oriented from north to south. Together they create a multitude of streams and tributaries including Mae Chaem, Mae Ngat and Mae Klang. One of Chiang Mai's distinctive features is Doi Inthanon, Thailands highest peak, which is 2,575 meters above sea level. In addition, the province boasts flat, fertile valleys, which spread along the banks of the largest and most important river in Chiang Mai Mae Nam Ping (Ping River) which originates from the Chiang Dao mountain range.

Easy access to islands
The Great Barrier Reef, a network of 2,900 coral reefs and more than 1000 islands stretches for 2000 kilometres off the coast of north Queensland. As well as being a World Heritage listed treasure, its islands topped with pristine rainforest, white beaches and fringed with coral gardens create a pleasure playground. People often marvel that the attractions of the islands can be so diverse: simply, there seems to be an island to suit every interest! And they are readily accessible from so many mainland points.
Heron Island, off Gladstone is a nature-lovers retreat, rich in bird life. Rather than take a day trip from the island to a coral reef, you can step right off the sand into coral gardens. Its fragile marine ecology means it is not an island for day trippers; you just have to stay there!
Beautiful Dunk Island is
quickly accessible, just seven kilometres from Mission Beach, which lies between Townsville and Cairns. Fitzroy Island is readily accessible from Cairns - just a 45 minute catamaran trip. Exclusive Double Island is also a quick zip over the waves from Cairns, while magnificent Green Island is a slightly longer 45 minute catamaran trip from Cairns. Then there's Magnetic Island - an easy eight kilometres off the coast of Townsville.
The Bundaberg region marks the southern start of the Great Barrier Reef region and provides access points for Lady Elliott island, 80 kilometres from the mainland. Lady Elliott has a rich eco-system and is renowned as one of the world's best scuba-diving spots.

Wildlife wonderland
Kangaroo Island is Australia's third largest island and a haven of unspoiled parks, reserves, beaches, dramatic coastal cliffs and isolated beaches.
Many local farmers have turned their hand to niche food and wine production, and cafes and restaurants are keen to promote local fare. The Kangaroo Island wine region has around a dozen wine producers and two cellar doors (others open by appointment), with main varieties including Chardonnay and Riesling. Choose your own lobster at Ferguson’s in Kingscote. Taste honey from what is believed to be the last population of pure Ligurian bees in the world. And enjoy marron (a delicious freshwater crustacean), sheep cheeses and yoghurt from a dairy where you can watch sheep being milked.
The island is popular for four-wheel drive touring, self-drive and cycling with accommodation in delightful lighthouse cottages, small motels, bed and breakfasts, and camping grounds. Join a personalised tour with a local who has
given up farming for tourism. The fishing and diving are excellent with established tour operators.
Koalas have also flourished. You only need to look up to see one curled up and sleepy in a fork of branches. The island is a sanctuary for kangaroos, wallabies, possums, bandicoots, goannas, dolphins, echidnas, platypus, a multitude of birds and a large colony of rare sea lions which frolic at Seal Bay oblivious to human presence. Cute little penguins come ashore every evening and the majestic southern right whale arrives in winter to mate and breed. The landscape is unusual with creeping sands, lagoons, caves and the amazing Remarkable Rocks sculptured for centuries by wind and rain.

Australian Style
Sydneysiders love to strut their stuff. They head for the newest really good restaurant, cafe or bar, the grooviest new promenade, or the smartest, nearest beach. They love to meet friends to eat, drink and be merry. There's an energy and boldness here that is irrepressible and uplifting. It's urbane, but fresh and curious.
With its wonderful climate and carefree lifestyle, Sydney has inspired some stunning young designers who have taken the multi-layered cultural influences and translated them into fashion.
The Mercedes Australian Fashion Week in Sydney sets the stage and has proved to be a highly successful venture, marketing Australian fashion to the world. Designers such as Collette Dinnigan and Akira Isogawa have become globally acclaimed.
Stroll up and down Oxford Street, Paddington, to see the funkiest designers. For more formal fashion, Double Bay is the place to shop. A trawl through the city arcades and streets - Skygarden, the MLC Centre, Chifley Square, Martin Place, the new Grace Bros fashion floor - should bedazzle the
shopper with alternatives.
Down at Bondi, view the best of Australian surf and beach wear that has blazed new trend trails internationally. If you can't find a 'cossie' (swimming costume) in Campbell Parade, there's something wrong. Don't miss the Mambo store for the ultimate in surf chic.
Sydney is a also an architectural dream. Many homes overlook the water or nestle in the bush, and are cantilevered over cliffs or dug back into the scenery (featuring light and space, layers of texture and looking outwards to the environment). This Australian architectural idiom was pioneered by Sydney architect Glenn Murcutt. It has been translated and adapted by many who have followed him.

Fraser Island is the largest sand island in the world of which 98% is national park and World Heritage listed. You need a 4WD to get around the island. There are camping and resort facilities or go whale watching in Hervey Bay. Fraser Island is the only place on the planet where rainforest grows on sand! Fraser Island is home to thousands of species of birds and its warm waters attract dugong, dolphins and turtles. The magnificent humpback whales, with their young, pass on the western side of the island between August and November.
Just one hour from downtown Brisbane, Bribie Island is an attractive and unspoilt 31-kilometre long island. It is Queensland's only offshore island linked by bridge and is separated from the mainland by Pumicestone Passage, a stunningly beautiful passage of water that is home to more than 350 species of birdlife, dugongs, turtles and dolphins. It also provides excellent fishing and boating.
Moreton Island is home to spectacular coastal scenery and the highest sand dune in the world. Located just 90 minutes from downtown Brisbane, Moreton Island is a sand mass measuring a little under 20 square kilometres in area. The large island, managed for recreation, is popular for its long sandy beaches, clear freshwater lagoons, wildflower heaths, and high sand dunes. Sightseeing comes naturally - wildlife, turtles, freshwater lakes, more than 200 species of birds, dolphins, the world's highest sand-dunes, 500 types of plant life, whales, coloured sands, rugged cliffs, white beaches and blue water. For the more adventurous, there is sandboarding, seakayaking, sailing, four wheel
driving, windsurfing, diving amongst wrecks and reef and much, much more.
North Stradbroke Island, affectionately referred to as 'Straddie', the elongated sand island of North Stradbroke shields much of the southern part of Moreton Bay and the smaller islands from the ocean swells. There is whale watching from Point Lookout during winter and there is also good surfing throughout the year. The ideal way to see the Island is by four-wheel drive.
Catch a ferry to the eco-friendly South Stradbroke Island. The island has several resorts that offer facilities for day trippers, including water sports and environmental tours and is also great for beach fishing, swimming and surfing.

The Torres Strait is made up of over 100 islands north of Cape York in Tropical North Queensland. Stretching approximately 150km between the northern most tip of Australia and the south coast of Papua New Guinea, the dazzling turquoise waters of the Torres Strait are dotted with over 100 islands as well as coral cays, exposed sandbanks and reefs. The Strait's overall population of 8000 people, of which approximately 6000 are Torres Strait Islanders and Aboriginal people, is dispersed throughout 19 small island communities. The communities are all remote, approximately 1000 kilometres from the nearest city and each has a population between 80 and 750 people. The most populated island and centre of trading and business in the Straits is Thursday Island, also known as ‘Waiben’. With 3,500 residents the Torres Strait Islander culture is an interesting mix of Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Malay, South Sea Islander, Papuan, Aboriginal and European peoples. Torres Strait Islanders are proud of their unique culture and both the older and
younger generations strive to retain it. Where possible Torres Strait Islanders maintain their traditional way of life, depending on marine resources for their daily existence. Thursday Island, now identified as one of the last great frontiers in Australia, holds some great Australian history. In 1880 Thursday Islandacted as the defence centre for Australiaand evidence of this still exists in that the cannons still remain in place. The culture is quite distinct from mainland Aboriginal culture. There is a variety of accommodation and tours to experience the Torres Strait Islands. It's an ideal stopover to see the Torres Straitculture and lifestyle inherited from its South Pacific neighbours.
The Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya or Ayutthaya in short, is one of Thailand's historical and majestic highlights. Serving as the Thai capital for 417 years (1350 1767: Kingdom of Ayutthaya), it was once glorified as one of the biggest cities in the world a Southeast Asia center for civilizations. During the 17th century, most foreign visitors to Ayutthaya, traders or diplomats alike, claimed Ayutthaya to be the most illustrious and glittering city that they had ever visited. The map of Ayutthaya published in 1691 by Simon de la Loub?re in Du Royaume De Siam is proof of such recognition.
The Kingdom of Ayutthaya reached its apex in terms of sovereignty, military might, wealth, culture, and international commerce in the 16th century when the Kingdoms territory was extended far beyond present-day Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar. Ayutthaya even had diplomatic relations with Louis XIV of France and was courted by Dutch, Portuguese, English, Chinese and Japanese merchants.
Visitors can explore and appreciate Thai history in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, which is situated only 86 kilometers north of Bangkok. Visitors to Ayutthaya can marvel at its grandeur reflected through numerous magnificent structures and ruins concentrated in and around the city island surrounded by Maenam Chao Phraya, Maenam Pa Sak and Maenam Lopburi.
More importantly,Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Historical Park, an extensive historical site in the heart of Ayutthaya city, has been included in UNESCO's World Heritage list since 13 December, 1991.
The Past
The Kingdom of Ayutthaya was built and developed in leaps and bounds. The ruins in Ayutthaya that survived the test of time embody both the glorious and ignominious stories of the Kingdom.
This ancient capital of the Kingdom of Ayutthaya, founded in 1350 by King U-Thong, had thirty three kings of different dynasties and reached its peak in the middle of the18th century. A magnificent city with three palaces and over 400 magnificent temples on an island threaded by canals Ayutthaya was truly an impressive city that attracted both Europeans and Asians. After a 15-month siege the Kingdom of Ayutthaya was conquered and completely destroyed by the Burmese in 1767. When King Taksin the Great finally liberated the Kingdom, a new dynasty was established and the capital was moved to Thonburi.
The seal of Ayutthaya depicts a conch on a pedestal tray placed in a small castle under a Mun tree. According to legend, King U-Thong, founder of the Kingdom of Ayutthaya, discovered a beautiful conch buried in the ground being prepared for the establishment of the seat of his Kingdom. Consequently, he had a tiny castle built to house the shell. Hence, the provincial seal.
The Present
Today, there are but groups of crumbling ruins and rows of headless Buddhas where once an empire thrived. The temple compounds are still awe-inspiring even in disrepair and a visit here is memorable and a good beginning for those drawn to the relics of history.
The architecture of Ayutthaya is a fascinating mix of Khmer (ancient Cambodian style) and early Sukhothai style. Some cactus-shaped obelisks, called prangs, denote Khmer influence and look something like the famous towers of Angkor Wat. The more pointed stupas are ascribed to the Sukhothai influence. For new arrivals who had limited their visit to Bangkok, similarities may be noted with the riverside Wat Arun, an 18th-century structure that was built in the so-called Ayutthaya style, a melding of Sukhothai Buddhist influences and Hindu-inspired Khmer motifs.
Ayutthaya is administratively divided into 16 districts: Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Ban Phraek, Bang Ban, Bang Pahan, Bang Pa-in, Amphoe Bang Sai, Bang Sai, Lat Bua Luang, Maha Rat, Nakhon Luang, Phachi, Phak-Hai, Sena, Tha Rua, Uthai and Wang Noi.

Visiting Norfolk Island is like taking a step back in time to an undiscovered paradise.
Many of the 2000 residents are descendants of Fletcher Christian and the 18th century Bounty mutineers, a unique mix of English, American whaler and Tahitian. Although English is the official language, Norfolk boasts its own unique language and a haunting history as one of the world's harshest convict colonies.
The island covers 3,455 hectares and a third of this is national parks and reserves. Lagoons and ocean reefs surrounding the island feature more than 100 varieties of coral.
Norfolk Island is a nirvana for bushwalkers. Tracks wind through lush palm forests and stands of Norfolk Island pine. Some lead to stunning views of the island and the surrounding ocean and provide close encounters with 40 different kinds of plants and animals solely found on the island. Mountain biking is also a popular way to get around.
For the more amphibious, water sports abound. Over 30 world-class diving sites offer outstanding diving opportunities. Divers can explore caves, tunnels,
chasms and chimneys, and a wide variety of fish and marine algae.
The clear, blue, protected waters of Emily Bay with its colourful coral reef and sea life is a favourite spot for snorkelling. Glass bottom boat tours are available here.
Norfolk is also known for its abundant fish stocks, a result of huge ocean currents swinging from the equator and across from Australia. These bring a rich array of fish - tuna, trumpeter, kingfish, mahi mahi, marlin and many other species including game fish. Fishing tour operators with their vast knowledge of local waters offer regular tours.
Surfing, windsurfing, canoeing, sailing and paddle boarding are among other popular pursuits.

Sydneysiders love to strut their stuff. They head for the newest really good restaurant, cafe or bar, the grooviest new promenade, or the smartest, nearest beach. They love to meet friends to eat, drink and be merry. There's an energy and boldness here that is irrepressible and uplifting. It's urbane, but fresh and curious.
With its wonderful climate and carefree lifestyle, Sydney has inspired some stunning young designers who have taken the multi-layered cultural influences and translated them into fashion.
The Mercedes Australian Fashion Week in Sydney sets the stage and has proved to be a highly successful venture, marketing Australian fashion to the world. Designers such as Collette Dinnigan and Akira Isogawa have become globally acclaimed.
Stroll up and down Oxford Street, Paddington, to see the funkiest designers. For more formal fashion, Double Bay is the place to shop. A trawl through the city arcades and streets - Skygarden, the MLC Centre, Chifley Square, Martin Place, the new Grace Bros fashion floor - should bedazzle the
shopper with alternatives.
Down at Bondi, view the best of Australian surf and beach wear that has blazed new trend trails internationally. If you can't find a 'cossie' (swimming costume) in Campbell Parade, there's something wrong. Don't miss the Mambo store for the ultimate in surf chic.
Sydney is a also an architectural dream. Many homes overlook the water or nestle in the bush, and are cantilevered over cliffs or dug back into the scenery (featuring light and space, layers of texture and looking outwards to the environment).

ULURU
Uluru (Ayers Rock), in the centre of Australia, is the world's biggest monolith at 3.6 kilometres long, two kilometres wide, 348 metres high and 9.4 kilometres round. Uluru, which belongs to the Anangu Aboriginal people, changes colour in different lights, particularly at sunrise and sunset.
Creation significance:
Uluru holds a significant place in the Anangu people's creation stories and laws, known as Tjukurpa. Many stories relate to how ancestral beings formed the rock. Aboriginal guides share these ancient tales with visitors on tours around Uluru's base.
Dramatic formation:
Uluru is composed of steeply dipping, feldspar-rich sandstone arkose, which has been exposed through folding, faulting, the erosion of rock and infill. At the base, there are caves, inlets and overhangs formed by chemical degradation and erosion.
Scenic rides:
Aside from a walking tour, one of the best ways to enjoy Uluru is a motorcycle tour. About a dozen companies offer scenic rides or rent out bikes. Sunrise and sunset are prime times to be out touring, as the rock changes colour with the light.
Desert explorers :
Visitors can experience the outback from the backs of camels, once the main way of getting around in the outback. Camel tours at Uluru capture the essence of camel-back exploration with a choice of escorted rides across the desert sands.
Bird's eye view :
An unforgettable way to experience Uluru is a flight in a light aircraft or helicopter for a bird's eye view of the monolith and surrounding plains. The experience varies with the season or time of day, but the memories can last a lifetime.
Uluru's true meaning :
Walks around Uluru with Aboriginal guides offer a spiritual interpretation and an understanding of its history. Visitors can retrace the path the Liru ancestors made to Uluru and see scars left on the rock from battling Kuniya thousands of years ago.
Taking to the road:
A trip for the adventurous and well-prepared takes in Central Australia's most spectacular sights on the Mereenie Loop, a quality unsealed road linking Uluru with Alice Springs, via Kings Canyon, the West MacDonnell National Park and Glen Helen Gorge.

Kangaroo Island is Australia's third largest island and a haven of unspoiled parks, reserves, beaches, dramatic coastal cliffs and isolated beaches.
Many local farmers have turned their hand to niche food and wine production, and cafes and restaurants are keen to promote local fare. The Kangaroo Island wine region has around a dozen wine producers and two cellar doors (others open by appointment), with main varieties including Chardonnay and Riesling. Choose your own lobster at Ferguson’s in Kingscote. Taste honey from what is believed to be the last population of pure Ligurian bees in the world. And enjoy marron (a delicious freshwater crustacean), sheep cheeses and yoghurt from a dairy where you can watch sheep being milked.
The island is popular for four-wheel drive touring, self-drive and cycling with accommodation in delightful lighthouse cottages, small motels, bed and breakfasts, and camping grounds. Join a personalised tour with a local who has
given up farming for tourism. The fishing and diving are excellent with established tour operators.
Koalas have also flourished. You only need to look up to see one curled up and sleepy in a fork of branches. The island is a sanctuary for kangaroos, wallabies, possums, bandicoots, goannas, dolphins, echidnas, platypus, a multitude of birds and a large colony of rare sea lions which frolic at Seal Bay oblivious to human presence. Cute little penguins come ashore every evening and the majestic southern right whale arrives in winter to mate and breed. The landscape is unusual with creeping sands, lagoons, caves and the amazing Remarkable Rocks sculptured for centuries by wind and rain.

The Torres Strait is made up of over 100 islands north of Cape York in Tropical North Queensland. Stretching approximately 150km between the northern most tip of Australia and the south coast of Papua New Guinea, the dazzling turquoise waters of the Torres Strait are dotted with over 100 islands as well as coral cays, exposed sandbanks and reefs. The Strait's overall population of 8000 people, of which approximately 6000 are Torres Strait Islanders and Aboriginal people, is dispersed throughout 19 small island communities. The communities are all remote, approximately 1000 kilometres from the nearest city and each has a population between 80 and 750 people. The most populated island and centre of trading and business in the Straits is Thursday Island, also known as ‘Waiben’. With 3,500 residents the Torres Strait Islander culture is an interesting mix of Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Malay, South Sea Islander, Papuan, Aboriginal and European peoples. Torres Strait Islanders are proud of their unique culture and both the older and
younger generations strive to retain it. Where possible Torres Strait Islanders maintain their traditional way of life, depending on marine resources for their daily existence. Thursday Island, now identified as one of the last great frontiers in Australia, holds some great Australian history. In 1880 Thursday Islandacted as the defence centre for Australiaand evidence of this still exists in that the cannons still remain in place. The culture is quite distinct from mainland Aboriginal culture. There is a variety of accommodation and tours to experience the Torres Strait Islands. It's an ideal stopover to see the Torres Straitculture and lifestyle inherited from its South Pacific neighbours.

The Great Barrier Reef, a network of 2,900 coral reefs and more than 1000 islands stretches for 2000 kilometres off the coast of north Queensland. As well as being a World Heritage listed treasure, its islands topped with pristine rainforest, white beaches and fringed with coral gardens create a pleasure playground. People often marvel that the attractions of the islands can be so diverse: simply, there seems to be an island to suit every interest! And they are readily accessible from so many mainland points.
Heron Island, off Gladstone is a nature-lovers retreat, rich in bird life. Rather than take a day trip from the island to a coral reef, you can step right off the sand into coral gardens. Its fragile marine ecology means it is not an island for day trippers; you just have to stay there!
Beautiful Dunk Island is
quickly accessible, just seven kilometres from Mission Beach, which lies between Townsville and Cairns. Fitzroy Island is readily accessible from Cairns - just a 45 minute catamaran trip. Exclusive Double Island is also a quick zip over the waves from Cairns, while magnificent Green Island is a slightly longer 45 minute catamaran trip from Cairns. Then there's Magnetic Island - an easy eight kilometres off the coast of Townsville.
The Bundaberg region marks the southern start of the Great Barrier Reef region and provides access points for Lady Elliott island, 80 kilometres from the mainland. Lady Elliott has a rich eco-system and is renowned as one of the world's best scuba-diving spots

Kangaroo Island is Australia's third largest island and a haven of unspoiled parks, reserves, beaches, dramatic coastal cliffs and isolated beaches.
Many local farmers have turned their hand to niche food and wine production, and cafes and restaurants are keen to promote local fare. The Kangaroo Island wine region has around a dozen wine producers and two cellar doors (others open by appointment), with main varieties including Chardonnay and Riesling. Choose your own lobster at Ferguson’s in Kingscote. Taste honey from what is believed to be the last population of pure Ligurian bees in the world. And enjoy marron (a delicious freshwater crustacean), sheep cheeses and yoghurt from a dairy where you can watch sheep being milked.
The island is popular for four-wheel drive touring, self-drive and cycling with accommodation in delightful lighthouse cottages, small motels, bed and breakfasts, and camping grounds. Join a personalised tour with a local who has
given up farming for tourism. The fishing and diving are excellent with established tour operators.
Koalas have also flourished. You only need to look up to see one curled up and sleepy in a fork of branches. The island is a sanctuary for kangaroos, wallabies, possums, bandicoots, goannas, dolphins, echidnas, platypus, a multitude of birds and a large colony of rare sea lions which frolic at Seal Bay oblivious to human presence. Cute little penguins come ashore every evening and the majestic southern right whale arrives in winter to mate and breed. The landscape is unusual with creeping sands, lagoons, caves and the amazing Remarkable Rocks sculptured for centuries by wind and rain.

The glittering, emerald expanse of waterway which makes up Sydney Harbour is the city's focal point. It splits the city in two and is crossed by the famous Harbour Bridge and the Harbour Tunnel.
From the ocean you enter the harbour through The Heads, dramatic cliff portals between Circular Quay in the city and the beachside suburb of Manly. The tops of The Heads are covered by Sydney Harbour National Park, which stretches along the rugged harbourside for kilometres. This haven for native plants and birds really surprises visitors.
Visitors are also struck by the harbour's beauty, especially at night when the high-rise towers around Circular Quay, the girders of the Harbour Bridge and the 'sails' of the Opera House are all lit up. It's then that the harbour waters take on a magical swirl of reflected colours - red, blue, green.
Green-and-yellow ferries ply the harbour until late in the evening, looking like wind-up bath toys as they trundle off to suburbs far and wide. Sleek tourist craft, tall ships rigged with sails, giant container vessels, water
taxis and private yachts flit around too, watched by sunbathers on the harbour beaches.
In the centre of the harbour is a series of islands, the most well known being Fort Denison, with its tiny sandstone castle, which once housed the worst of Sydney's convicts.
At Cadmans Cottage, The Rocks, you'll find the Sydney Harbour National Park Information Centre where you can arrange a visit to Fort Denison and other islands.
Shark Island (located between Bradleys Head and Rose Bay) has panoramic views from Sydney Harbour Bridge to Manly and The Heads, and Clark Island is a tiny piece of untouched Australian bushland, with winding tracks through gum trees and natural rocky outcrops.

Beaches and surfing
Surfing and Torquay are synonymous and the town has rightly earned the crown as Australia's surf capital. It is one of the most popular beach resorts on the Surfcoast.
Since the early 1960s Bells Beach has hosted the world’s most prestigious and longest running event on the men's professional surfing circuit, the Rip Curl Pro. Bells is also home to the women's world championships, the Sun Smart Classic.
Every Easter, the world's best surfers descend on Bells to tackle the swell and waves that can rise up to five metres. The event is now a 10 day festival attracting a crowd of thousands.
You can visit the famous beach, walk the sands and watch the big waves roll in. Torquay is a great place for surf-related products. The major manufacturers are located here, making surfboards, wetsuits,
clothing, sunglasses and accessories.
The Surfworld Museum and Hall of Fame are well worth a visit.
If you can't make it for Easter, surfing carnivals are held throughout the summer, as well as the Australian Strongman Triathlon in February and the High Tide Festival in December.
But you don't have to be a surfer to enjoy Torquay. A holiday resort since the late 19th century, Torquay's beaches are modelled on English seaside resorts with immaculate grassed foreshore reserves, shady trees and picnic areas. A number of protected beaches offer safe swimming and are ideal for families. Sailing, diving, fishing and windsurfing are just some of the other favourite pursuits around Torquay.

Margaret River to Pemberton
Explore the Margaret River region visiting Leeuwin Estate, the region's largest winery and a producer of many fine wines. In summertime the winery plays host to the annual Leeuwin Concert, with some of the world's greatest orchestras and performers playing to packed audiences who picnic all day in readiness for the concert under the stars.
Call in at the Berry Farm where you can 'pick your own' from the fields of luscious berry fruits in a bushland setting, or select from the menu of delicious home-cooked fare which features naturally produced jams, preserves and wines.
Back on Caves Road again, be sure to make the detour along Boranup Drive as you drive northward. The road winds through the tall karri trees of the Boranup Forest, with occasional glimpses of the rugged coastline below. At the top end of the 14-kilometre drive you'll emerge not far from the Boranup Gallery, a wonderful showcase of local timber crafts.
Early explorers of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste Ridge were amazed by the hidden wilderness of the region's many caves. Formed in limestone laid down two million years ago, the Mammoth, Lake, Jewel and Moondyne Caves are living time capsules. Moondyne Cave is the most recently developed cave and the first in the region to provide a 'wild' caving experience to visitors. You'll feel the thrill of real adventure caving as you don overalls, helmet and miner's light and join experienced guides to explore the secrets of Moondyne.
Continue the drive south past Augusta to Cape Leeuwin and enjoy the magnificent view of the two oceans from the lighthouse.
Drive back north along Bussell Highway, turn right onto Brockman Highway towards Pemberton, allowing around two hours to complete the trip.
Check in at the Karri Valley Resort, in the heart of the karri forest just west of Pemberton. Surrounded by towering, ancient trees, the resort overlooks a man-made lake filled with rainbow trout. Spend the remainder of the afternoon fine-tuning your fly-fishing technique, and you may feast on trout for dinner! Resort activities include bird-watching, horseback riding, canoeing and bushwalking

Uluru's true meaning
Visitors barely need to be told that Uluru is a monolith of great spiritual significance. The great, moody rock, reaching 348 metres tall and measuring nine kilometres at its base, fairly radiates mystery. Its relationship with the local Anangu Aboriginal people goes back some 60,000 years. The land is dotted with ancestral sites, rich in meaning.
Take a guided walk at its immense feet with some of the local people, or visit their centre at the base of the rock and listen to some of the Dreamtime ancestral stories that will give you an insight into the significance of this land.
To the Anangu, Uluru is alive with the presence of dozens of ancestral beings who still inhabit special sites. Their activities are recorded at certain sites around Uluru and most of the stories are sacred and shrouded in
secrecy. But the Anangu, through their stories, artwork and dance can give you glimpses. The Liru (poisonous snake) and Kuniya (woma python) are significant ancestral figures for the Anangu, but there are many others as well. Some of them are illustrated in cave paintings around Uluru. Perhaps you will see the marks of Tatji, the small red lizard's efforts to scoop out his lost throwing stick, embedded in the rock. Or you may glimpse his body, which remains in the form of boulders on the cave floor. In the grey lichen on a rock face you may see the smoke from the fire once lit by the blue-tongued Lizard men who tried to cheat the Bell-Bird brothers out of their share of an emu kill.

Sydneysiders love to strut their stuff. They head for the newest really good restaurant, cafe or bar, the grooviest new promenade, or the smartest, nearest beach. They love to meet friends to eat, drink and be merry. There's an energy and boldness here that is irrepressible and uplifting. It's urbane, but fresh and curious.
With its wonderful climate and carefree lifestyle, Sydney has inspired some stunning young designers who have taken the multi-layered cultural influences and translated them into fashion.
The Mercedes Australian Fashion Week in Sydney sets the stage and has proved to be a highly successful venture, marketing Australian fashion to the world. Designers such as Collette Dinnigan and Akira Isogawa have become globally acclaimed.
Stroll up and down Oxford Street, Paddington, to see the funkiest designers. For more formal fashion, Double Bay is the place to shop. A trawl through the city arcades and streets - Skygarden, the MLC Centre, Chifley Square, Martin Place, the new Grace Bros fashion floor - should bedazzle the
shopper with alternatives.
Down at Bondi, view the best of Australian surf and beach wear that has blazed new trend trails internationally. If you can't find a 'cossie' (swimming costume) in Campbell Parade, there's something wrong. Don't miss the Mambo store for the ultimate in surf chic.
Sydney is a also an architectural dream. Many homes overlook the water or nestle in the bush, and are cantilevered over cliffs or dug back into the scenery (featuring light and space, layers of texture and looking outwards to the environment). This Australian architectural idiom was pioneered by Sydney architect Glenn Murcutt. It has been translated and adapted by many who have followed him.

Whale-watch cruises from Urangan Boat Harbour give fascinating insights into the lives of these giants of the sea. Some 20 operators run Hervey Bay whale-watch cruises, with whales sometimes coming so close to the boats that you can hear the great blast of air rushing from their blowholes as they breach. It's an awesome experience and one that moves everyone aboard.
Below the surface, mother whales may well be chatting to each other and to their calves. Humpback whales belong to the group of whales known as rorquals, which includes the blue whale, fin whale, Bryde's whale, sei whale, and minke whale. Research on minke whale populations off the Queensland coast show they have a complex language with a rich vocabulary. Little is understood about it and one diver has described the language as "a sort of rolling noise - like being in the middle of a mob of pigs".
Who knows what they discuss? Possibly they say things like "eaten any good krill lately?" referring to the small shrimp-like marine crustaceans upon which they feed.
Each year, during winter, humpback whales migrate from Antarctic waters to the warm waters of the tropics for calving. Many of the giant mammals turn up at Hervey Bay from late July and remain until November, when they set off on the long migration to the cold southern ocean far south of Australia.

Great beach walks
Thousands of years of erosion by the Southern Ocean have created extraordinary formations in the limestone cliffs of Port Campbell National Park.
The majestic beauty of this windswept, ocean-blasted piece of the world offers enduring memories to the millions of visitors it attracts each year.
The gigantic rock pillars of the Twelve Apostles are world-recognised icons, synonymous with the Great Ocean Road. However, there are many more fantastic landmarks to marvel at along this 27 kilometre stretch protected by the Port Campbell National Park.
While the coast is a must-see at any time of year, it’s at its peak when howling winds and huge seas are giving it a pounding. Blowholes roar with spouting water and the sea boils around the stacks and cliff bases. At Gibson Steps, just before the Apostles, you can
descend to the beach via steps that hug the 70 metre cliff face. Once on the wide, sandy beach you begin to realise the scale of this place. In the near distance is a huge rock stack, dwarfing visitors who walk towards it.
Make sure you visit London Bridge, a rocky promontory arch carved out by the sea which once linked to a tiny island but collapsed stranding two tourists.
Other spectacular attractions include Loch Ard Gorge, the Razorback, Island Archway, Thunder Cave, Bakers Oven Rock, Sentinel Rocks, and the Grotto.
Whether by car or coach, or through a bird's eye view from a helicopter or historic tiger moth plane, the Great Ocean Road offers up experience after experience.

Fabulous fusion foods
Australian cuisine, heavily influenced by its extraordinary ethnic mix, is rapidly becoming well-known overseas and, along with its wines, is picking up sought after prizes at major international competitions.
Throughout the city you can find restaurants to suit all tastes and wallets - the inner-city suburb of Newtown has everything from cheap Vietnamese and Indonesian food through to African and French cuisine, while another inner-city suburb, Glebe, is famous for both sophisticated and down-to-earth eateries.
Some of Sydney's best restaurants are at Circular Quay, while a whole string of up-market restaurants dot the landscape in the historic Rocks area, the city centre and inner-city Kings Cross. Don't miss Doyles on the Beach, a ferry ride away from the city at Watsons Bay. It's one of the best
seafood eateries and has a fabulous seaside setting. As for Bondi and Manly - they're almost bursting at the seams.
Recent developments include East Circular Quay, where up-market outdoor eateries line the boardwalk to the Opera House. Elsewhere there's a harbour-side feel to the quality restaurants at Finger Wharf at Woolloomooloo, and at Cockle Bay and Darling Harbour, where you can sit inside or out, and enjoy the passing parade.
Sydney is fortunate too to have a healthy cafe culture, due in part to its many ethnic influences. Quality cafes are everywhere, with some of the most atmospheric scattered around the suburb of Darlinghurst, a short walk from Kings Cross CityRail station.

Lord Howe Island is one of New South Wales' best kept secrets.
The World Heritage listed island boasts an extraordinary natural environment and is the only surviving remnant of an extinct volcano chain and the world's southern-most coral reef.
Measuring 11 kilometres long and almost three kilometres wide, Lord Howe provides plenty of activity from mountaineering on the high peaks and cycling through rainforests to reef walking and snorkelling in the lagoon. Fishing and surfing are also popular pursuits.
The warm sub-tropical climate of Lord Howe (averaging 26 degrees Celsius in summer and 16 degrees Celsius in winter) makes it an ideal year round destination.
By cycle or foot, there are many stunning aspects of the island to explore. One of the best points to start is Mount Gower (875 metres) and Mount Lidgbird (77 metres), the tallest peaks, rising powerfully above the sandy beaches and green-blue of the ocean.
From here you'll discover that much of the land is covered by rainforest and palm forests (the kentia palm is indigenous and exports of its seeds are a major industry), with grasses in
the lower regions.
The islands are breeding grounds for large colonies of seabirds and have the largest breeding concentration in the world of the red-tailed tropic bird. Some 168 bird species have been identified.
The underwater world around the islands is another unique feature. This is the meeting point for the tropical waters from the north and the cooler southern waters. The reef stretches for six kilometres, providing pristine reefs for diving and snorkelling.
Accommodation ranges from family-run guest lodges to self-contained apartments. The island's 300 residents are keen to retain their idyllic island lifestyle and have limited the number of tourist beds to 400.

Visiting Norfolk Island is like taking a step back in time to an undiscovered paradise.
Many of the 2000 residents are descendants of Fletcher Christian and the 18th century Bounty mutineers, a unique mix of English, American whaler and Tahitian. Although English is the official language, Norfolk boasts its own unique language and a haunting history as one of the world's harshest convict colonies.
The island covers 3,455 hectares and a third of this is national parks and reserves. Lagoons and ocean reefs surrounding the island feature more than 100 varieties of coral.
Norfolk Island is a nirvana for bushwalkers. Tracks wind through lush palm forests and stands of Norfolk Island pine. Some lead to stunning views of the island and the surrounding ocean and provide close encounters with 40 different kinds of plants and animals solely found on the island. Mountain biking is also a popular way to get around.
For the more amphibious, water sports abound. Over 30 world-class diving sites offer outstanding diving opportunities. Divers can explore caves, tunnels,
chasms and chimneys, and a wide variety of fish and marine algae.
The clear, blue, protected waters of Emily Bay with its colourful coral reef and sea life is a favourite spot for snorkelling. Glass bottom boat tours are available here.
Norfolk is also known for its abundant fish stocks, a result of huge ocean currents swinging from the equator and across from Australia. These bring a rich array of fish - tuna, trumpeter, kingfish, mahi mahi, marlin and many other species including game fish. Fishing tour operators with their vast knowledge of local waters offer regular tours.
Surfing, windsurfing, canoeing, sailing and paddle boarding are among other popular pursuits.

With more than 40 percent of the island protected as World Heritage Area, national park, and marine or forest reserves, Tasmania is Australia’s walkers’ paradise.
The island offers walking experiences for all levels of fitness and challenge. There are more than 60 short walks that take you into dark green rainforests, along ancient sea cliffs, across open savannahs, beside turquoise seas and beneath jagged mountain peaks.
There are multi-day walks for the independent at heart who love a challenge and head off self-contained and self-reliant with everything on their backs. There are walks for those who want the challenge of self-reliance but don’t want to do it alone and prefer to travel with a guide.
Tasmania can guarantee well-maintained and marked tracks, knowledgeable park rangers, top quality guides and, most important of all, no crowds.
In the northeast the Bay of Fires walk takes you along white granite-sand beaches and giant boulders for a night in a standing camp among rolling dunes before arriving at the stylish, award-winning ecolodge for two days of relaxation and fine food.
To the east is the wildlife haven of
Maria Island National Park and in your four days with Maria Island Walk you will see Forester kangaroos, pademelons, wallabies and Cape Barren geese.
In the northwest, the famous Overland Track starts beneath the ancient peaks of Cradle Mountain for a six-day trek, south, across open buttongrass plains, through Gondwanan forests, where only the dinosaurs are missing. You have the chance to climb Tasmania’s highest peak, Mt Ossa (1617 metres or 5,250 feet) and you will experience some of the last pristine temperate rainforests on our planet. You can choose to stay in private cabins with Cradle Huts Walk or public huts with Craclair Walking Holidays or Tasmanian Expeditions.

Many local farmers have turned their hand to niche food and wine production, and cafes and restaurants are keen to promote local fare. The Kangaroo Island wine region has around a dozen wine producers and two cellar doors (others open by appointment), with main varieties including Chardonnay and Riesling. Choose your own lobster at Ferguson’s in Kingscote. Taste honey from what is believed to be the last population of pure Ligurian bees in the world. And enjoy marron (a delicious freshwater crustacean), sheep cheeses and yoghurt from a dairy where you can watch sheep being milked.
The island is popular for four-wheel drive touring, self-drive and cycling with accommodation in delightful lighthouse cottages, small motels, bed and breakfasts, and camping grounds. Join a personalised tour with a local who has
given up farming for tourism. The fishing and diving are excellent with established tour operators.
Koalas have also flourished. You only need to look up to see one curled up and sleepy in a fork of branches. The island is a sanctuary for kangaroos, wallabies, possums, bandicoots, goannas, dolphins, echidnas, platypus, a multitude of birds and a large colony of rare sea lions which frolic at Seal Bay oblivious to human presence. Cute little penguins come ashore every evening and the majestic southern right whale arrives in winter to mate and breed. The landscape is unusual with creeping sands, lagoons, caves and the amazing Remarkable Rocks sculptured for centuries by wind and rain.

The glittering, emerald expanse of waterway which makes up Sydney Harbour is the city's focal point. It splits the city in two and is crossed by the famous Harbour Bridge and the Harbour Tunnel.
From the ocean you enter the harbour through The Heads, dramatic cliff portals between Circular Quay in the city and the beachside suburb of Manly. The tops of The Heads are covered by Sydney Harbour National Park, which stretches along the rugged harbourside for kilometres. This haven for native plants and birds really surprises visitors.
Visitors are also struck by the harbour's beauty, especially at night when the high-rise towers around Circular Quay, the girders of the Harbour Bridge and the 'sails' of the Opera House are all lit up. It's then that the harbour waters take on a magical swirl of reflected colours - red, blue, green.
Green-and-yellow ferries ply the harbour until late in the evening, looking like wind-up bath toys as they trundle off to suburbs far and wide. Sleek tourist craft, tall ships rigged with sails, giant container vessels, water
taxis and private yachts flit around too, watched by sunbathers on the harbour beaches.
In the centre of the harbour is a series of islands, the most well known being Fort Denison, with its tiny sandstone castle, which once housed the worst of Sydney's convicts.
At Cadmans Cottage, The Rocks, you'll find the Sydney Harbour National Park Information Centre where you can arrange a visit to Fort Denison and other islands.
Shark Island (located between Bradleys Head and Rose Bay) has panoramic views from Sydney Harbour Bridge to Manly and The Heads, and Clark Island is a tiny piece of untouched Australian bushland, with winding tracks through gum trees and natural rocky outcrops.

Wildlife wonderland
Kangaroo Island is Australia's third largest island and a haven of unspoiled parks, reserves, beaches, dramatic coastal cliffs and isolated beaches.
Many local farmers have turned their hand to niche food and wine production, and cafes and restaurants are keen to promote local fare. The Kangaroo Island wine region has around a dozen wine producers and two cellar doors (others open by appointment), with main varieties including Chardonnay and Riesling. Choose your own lobster at Ferguson’s in Kingscote. Taste honey from what is believed to be the last population of pure Ligurian bees in the world. And enjoy marron (a delicious freshwater crustacean), sheep cheeses and yoghurt from a dairy where you can watch sheep being milked.
The island is popular for four-wheel drive touring, self-drive and cycling with accommodation in delightful lighthouse cottages, small motels, bed and breakfasts, and camping grounds. Join a personalised tour with a local who has
given up farming for tourism. The fishing and diving are excellent with established tour operators.
Koalas have also flourished. You only need to look up to see one curled up and sleepy in a fork of branches. The island is a sanctuary for kangaroos, wallabies, possums, bandicoots, goannas, dolphins, echidnas, platypus, a multitude of birds and a large colony of rare sea lions which frolic at Seal Bay oblivious to human presence. Cute little penguins come ashore every evening and the majestic southern right whale arrives in winter to mate and breed. The landscape is unusual with creeping sands, lagoons, caves and the amazing Remarkable Rocks sculptured for centuries by wind and rain.

Around the clock
Oxford Street, Kings Cross and the area around Darlinghurst is the part of Sydney that never sleeps. Around here you can find dozens of bars, cafes, restaurants, pubs and nightclubs with some of them open 24 hours.
The area between Darlinghurst and Kings Cross is the Victoria Street strip - by day a popular coffee venue. Try varieties of Italian sandwich at Bar Coluzzi or across the road at the Tropicana, also known for its annual short film festival.
The area around Taylor Square is the epicentre of Gay Sydney. Here, once a year, the Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras passes by, a gaudy, giddy, gyrating parade that has become the focus for the lively arts and lifestyle culture created by the active and out-there gay community of the city.
See drag shows and dance late into the night at the Imperial Hotel in Erskineville. Otherwise try a local gay-orientated nightclub, like the Taxi Club or Midnight Shift on Oxford Street.
Non-gay nightclubs are also congregated along Oxford Street, as well as Kings Cross and Darlinghurst. One of the most popular at present is Home, at Cockle Bay
on the city side of Darling Harbour.
If it's jazz you fancy then try Soup Plus on George Street, where you can tuck into bistro food while you listen to the sweet melodies coming from a sax. Another option is The Basement near Circular Quay, which manages to squeeze in blues, folk and funk as well as world-class jazz acts.
As for pubs and bars, Sydney's 24 hour drinking laws mean you'll always find one open somewhere or other. Popular areas for a drink or two include the city centre and The Rocks - where you can find Sydney's oldest pubs, the Hero of Waterloo and the Lord Nelson Hotel. Otherwise, try Oxford Street and Kings Cross, or the beachside suburbs of Bondi and Manly.

Australian Style
Sydneysiders love to strut their stuff. They head for the newest really good restaurant, cafe or bar, the grooviest new promenade, or the smartest, nearest beach. They love to meet friends to eat, drink and be merry. There's an energy and boldness here that is irrepressible and uplifting. It's urbane, but fresh and curious.
With its wonderful climate and carefree lifestyle, Sydney has inspired some stunning young designers who have taken the multi-layered cultural influences and translated them into fashion.
The Mercedes Australian Fashion Week in Sydney sets the stage and has proved to be a highly successful venture, marketing Australian fashion to the world. Designers such as Collette Dinnigan and Akira Isogawa have become globally acclaimed.
Stroll up and down Oxford Street, Paddington, to see the funkiest designers. For more formal fashion, Double Bay is the place to shop. A trawl through the city arcades and streets - Skygarden, the MLC Centre, Chifley Square, Martin Place, the new Grace Bros fashion floor - should bedazzle the
shopper with alternatives.
Down at Bondi, view the best of Australian surf and beach wear that has blazed new trend trails internationally. If you can't find a 'cossie' (swimming costume) in Campbell Parade, there's something wrong. Don't miss the Mambo store for the ultimate in surf chic.
Sydney is a also an architectural dream. Many homes overlook the water or nestle in the bush, and are cantilevered over cliffs or dug back into the scenery (featuring light and space, layers of texture and looking outwards to the environment). This Australian architectural idiom was pioneered by Sydney architect Glenn Murcutt. It has been translated and adapted by many who have followed him.

Easy access to islands
The Great Barrier Reef, a network of 2,900 coral reefs and more than 1000 islands stretches for 2000 kilometres off the coast of north Queensland. As well as being a World Heritage listed treasure, its islands topped with pristine rainforest, white beaches and fringed with coral gardens create a pleasure playground. People often marvel that the attractions of the islands can be so diverse: simply, there seems to be an island to suit every interest! And they are readily accessible from so many mainland points.
Heron Island, off Gladstone is a nature-lovers retreat, rich in bird life. Rather than take a day trip from the island to a coral reef, you can step right off the sand into coral gardens. Its fragile marine ecology means it is not an island for day trippers; you just have to stay there!
Beautiful Dunk Island is
quickly accessible, just seven kilometres from Mission Beach, which lies between Townsville and Cairns. Fitzroy Island is readily accessible from Cairns - just a 45 minute catamaran trip. Exclusive Double Island is also a quick zip over the waves from Cairns, while magnificent Green Island is a slightly longer 45 minute catamaran trip from Cairns. Then there's Magnetic Island - an easy eight kilometres off the coast of Townsville.
The Bundaberg region marks the southern start of the Great Barrier Reef region and provides access points for Lady Elliott island, 80 kilometres from the mainland. Lady Elliott has a rich eco-system and is renowned as one of the world's best scuba-diving spots.

In 1998, Phillip Island became a world first in environmental technology. It opened the "Zoo of the Future" known as the Sea Life Centre.
The hi-tech A$17 million centre brings visitors face to face with Australia's largest population (16,000 to 18,000) of Australian fur seals. On a large indoor screen, the fur seals can be seen swimming, hunting and playing.
The pictures of the seals are taken from a sophisticated camera tower near Seal Rocks and are transmitted to the centre by laser, instead of submarine cables, to protect the seabed.
The centre allows people to see seals and other marine life in their natural habitat without disturbing them or polluting their environment. Also
at the centre is an interactive Voyage of Discovery where visitors retrace the journey made by explorer George Bass in 1798, and learn about the history of the Australian fur seal.
Phillip Island attracts more than 800,000 visitors a year. Most come to see the world-renowned fairy penguin parade, but once here you'll be amazed by how much more there is to see and do.
As well as seals and penguins, the island is a major breeding ground for sea birds and home to a thriving community of koalas. Make sure you visit the Koala Conservation Centre. It was specially established in a remnant eucalypt woodland to provide koalas with a natural habitat protected against future development.

Uluru
Uluru (Ayers Rock), in the centre of Australia, is the world's biggest monolith at 3.6 kilometres long, two kilometres wide, 348 metres high and 9.4 kilometres round. Uluru, which belongs to the Anangu Aboriginal people, changes colour in different lights, particularly at sunrise and sunset. Advertisement
Creation significance
Uluru holds a significant place in the Anangu people's creation stories and laws, known as Tjukurpa. Many stories relate to how ancestral beings formed the rock. Aboriginal guides share these ancient tales with visitors on tours around Uluru's base. more info »
Dramatic formation
Uluru is composed of steeply dipping, feldspar-rich sandstone arkose, which has been exposed through folding, faulting, the erosion of rock and infill. At the base, there are caves, inlets and overhangs formed by chemical degradation and erosion.
Scenic rides
Aside from a walking tour, one of the best ways to enjoy Uluru is a motorcycle tour. About a dozen companies offer scenic rides or rent out bikes. Sunrise and sunset are prime times to be out touring, as the rock changes colour with the light.
Desert explorers
Visitors can experience the outback from the backs of camels, once the main way of getting around in the outback. Camel tours at Uluru capture the essence of camel-back exploration with a choice of escorted rides across the desert sands.
Bird's eye view
An unforgettable way to experience Uluru is a flight in a light aircraft or helicopter for a bird's eye view of the monolith and surrounding plains. The experience varies with the season or time of day, but the memories can last a lifetime.
Uluru's true meaning
Walks around Uluru with Aboriginal guides offer a spiritual interpretation and an understanding of its history. Visitors can retrace the path the Liru ancestors made to Uluru and see scars left on the rock from battling Kuniya thousands of years ago. more info »
Taking to the road
A trip for the adventurous and well-prepared takes in Central Australia's most spectacular sights on the Mereenie Loop, a quality unsealed road linking Uluru with Alice Springs, via Kings Canyon, the West MacDonnell National Park and Glen Helen Gorge
