Australia

A continent-country in the Southern Hemisphere, home to the Great Barrier Reef, the red heart of Uluru and vibrant, diverse coastal cities.

Australia covers the entire Australian continent as well as islands such as Tasmania, with landscapes ranging from tropical rainforest and coral reefs to vast inland deserts. Signature sights include the Sydney Opera House, Melbourne's laneway culture, the Great Barrier Reef, Uluru, the Great Ocean Road and the Tasmanian wilderness, and unique animals such as kangaroos and koalas are easy to spot. The southern cities are best visited in spring and autumn, while the tropical north is best in the dry season (about May–Oct). Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth are the main international gateways.
