The East Coast of Australia gets a lot of attention, with the iconic city of Sydney and the Queensland coastline offering a wealth of holiday attractions for Kiwi travellers.

Watch the sun go down on a romantic evening with your loved one at Cable Beach in the far north. Snorkel or scuba dive at Ningaloo Reef, the largest fringing reef on the planet. Get up close to marine wildlife including whale sharks, dolphins and manta rays. Explore one of the last true wilderness regions on earth in the Kimberley and enjoy a luxury Outback glamping retreat. Travel to Perth, the sunniest state capital in Australia, for city parks, cultural tours & attractions, museums & galleries, and incredible foodie experiences.
