by Anamika Saha Seo Expert
Queensland is the most famous holiday destination in Australia and often referred to as the Sunshine State of the nation. The region abounds in a wide range of natural jewels such as golden beaches, incredible surf breaks, exotic rainforests, waterfalls, rivers, tropical islands and rivers. Due to presence of so many sun-soaked settings, travellers and tourists get a chance to take part in various outdoor activities.

Let’s have a look at 3 places in Queensland that are worth a visit during one’s stay in the beautiful state:

Great Barrier Reef Marine Park:

Often regarded as a natural wonder of the planet, Great Barrier Reef Marine Park consists of around 300 coral cays, 600 continental islands, 3000 coral reefs and several mangrove islands. The incredibly diverse marine life of the Reef lures snorkelers and divers from all over the world. It includes about 1600 different tropical fish species along with dugongs, sharks, turtles, dolphins, kaleidoscopic hard and soft corals, and giant clams. The northern island of the Park, known as the Lizard Island, even has a famous exclusive resort.

Fraser Island & Hervey Bay:

Just between Brisbane and Bundaberg is the world’s biggest sand island, the World Heritage-listed site of Fraser Island. Here, visitors are allowed to participate in 4-wheeler adventures for exploring vast windswept beaches, dingoes, multi-coloured rock formations, dense forests and pristine streams and lakes. In order to access the island, ferries are provided for tourists from Hervey Bay, which is yet another attraction situated close to the Fraser Coast. Apart from checking into affordable and convenient resort accommodation and enjoying its pleasant atmosphere, there are several other incredible things that tourists can do in this natural bay, including whale watching and snorkelling. There are many fantastic diving locations in Hervey Bay for the tourists to enjoy as well.

Port Douglas:

Dotted with mango trees and palms, the peaceful Port Douglas is a famous base for reef trips and wilderness safaris. This scenic town is situated along a coastal road between rainforest-covered hills and windswept beaches lying north of Cairns. Port Douglas possesses a calm vibe that is accentuated by the presence of shops, art galleries and cafes. One can enjoy exhilarating views of palm-fringed beaches from Flagstaff Hill Lookout, brush on their photography by clicking shots of the picturesque Coral Sea or explore attractions of the town such as the Balley Hooley Sugar Train and the Wildlife Habitat. Other adventures available for travellers include fishing trips, northbound expeditions, boat trips and safaris.
