6:14 PM
Next to its breathtaking beaches, numerous beautiful
national parks, charming little towns, and many activities that can fulfill
anybody’s wishes, it’s no wonder Australia’s East Coast is one of the most
popular tourist destinations in the world ‒ there are just so many things to
see and even more things to do. Plus, this part of Australia is not hard to
explore, so if you’re planning on visiting the Land Down Under, here are a
couple of things you should definitely see on Australia’s East Coast.
Cairns
Cairns is usually considered the party town of the East
Coast, so it might be the best to visit it at the beginning or the end of your
trip, depending on when you want to release some energy. Most people enjoy
relaxing during the day and partying at night, so if this sounds like your
perfect vacation, make sure to visit this town. It’s also one of the best places for scuba diving and snorkeling, which
makes it perfect for all the adventure seekers who love water sports and marine
life.
Rainbow Beach
A place that definitely deserves your visit, Rainbow Beach
got its name from its colorful sand. Here, you can sand sled down the hills,
walk along the beach looking for the differently colored sand, or just lie down
and enjoy the sunset. This place is also perfect for those who enjoy their
privacy and are looking for something more intimate, as there are only a couple
of bars and a few restaurants.
Byron Bay
Byron Bay might be one of the most popular places for
surfing since there are many beaches with countless surfers practicing their
skills all the time. It’s also known for kayaking in case you’re not really
into surfing. After all, you can always just sunbathe on one of the numerous stunning
beaches and watch others surf the day away. Plus, the amazing Byron
Bay accommodation is a perfect mix of luxury surrounded by heavenly
nature, which is bound to make you wish you could stay there forever.
Agnes Water/1770
The place that is known as the first western settlement in
Australia is great for those who feel the need for speed. There are exciting
mini motorbike tours, also known as scooteroo tours, that allow you to ride
mini choppers around the nearby hills while enjoying the sights in a big group
of bikers just like you. If you’ve always wanted to ride a bike, this is one of
the best ways to start.
Fraser Island
This island offers one of the most memorable experiences as
it is the largest sand island in the world with beaches spreading as far as the
eye can see. If you love animals, you’d be happy to know that you’d get to see plenty of wild
dingoes here. There are also tropical rainforests and freshwater
lakes, so it’s a true paradise for all nature lovers. Just don’t miss out on
the chance to visit the stunning Lake Mckenzie ‒ it’d be worth the trip.
Yamba
One of the most beautiful and peaceful hidden gems of
Australia’s East Coast, Yamba has a very friendly and laid-back vibe, which is
always appreciated by all the visitors. It’s filled with gorgeous beaches that
are perfect for getting a tan or improving your surfing skills. It is also
known as one of the best backpacker cities in Australia, so if
you’re looking to experience that true “Aussie” lifestyle, then this is the
place to be.
Whether you’re into surfing, kayaking, bike riding, or
something “slower” like exploring the nature, sunbathing, and walking on
beautiful beaches, East Coast has something for everybody. So pack your bags
and head to the Land Down Under where you will surely have the time of your
life and gain many experiences you will cherish for a long time.
Thank you for visiting!
