We’ve rounded up some top Australian travel bloggers who have given you their tips on the best places to visit in Australia.
Sydney
Sydney is filled with beautiful beaches, fun activities and good food. One of the best ways to have a view of the beauty of Sydney is by taking a relaxing walk rather than taking other means of transportation, such as buses and boats. An amazing beach walk is from Bondi Beach to Coogee Beach. It offers extremely pleasant views of the area’s famous rocky, thin and sandy beaches.
Sunshine Coast
Sunshine Coast has become one of the most beautiful strips of coastland in Australia, with long white beaches lined with health⁃conscious cafes and trendy clothes shops. When you aren’t absorbing the sunshine on one of the many beaches, you can head out to the hinterland for a day of mountain hiking or discover the swimming holes and waterfalls.
Byron Bay
Byron Bay is one of Australia’s top tourist destinations. From countless waterfalls and swimming holes to mountains and bush walks, this small region hides so much beauty. I would suggest starting with a hike to the bottom of Minyon Falls for a swim, a hike to the top of Mt Warning for a sunrise, and then a hike to the Natural Arch.
Blue Mountains
If you’re looking for a dose of nature, the spot is for you. Make sure you have time to visit Wentworth Falls. Blue Mountains will offer walks with appealing views of the waterfall. These famous rock formations are the highlight of this picturesque postcard area. If you head to Echo Point, don’t miss the Science Railway—the steepest passenger railway in the world.
