There’s something about Australia that screams “holiday”. Maybe it’s the stunning beaches, the laid-back attitude or the incredible array of things to see and do. Whatever the reason, there’s no denying that Australia is a great cruising destination.

One of the best things about cruising around Australia is that there’s something for everyone. If you’re looking for adventure, you can go hiking, biking or surfing in some of the most beautiful locations in the world. Or, if you want to relax, you can soak up the sun on one of our many pristine beaches.

And, of course, no trip to Australia would be complete without experiencing some of our unique wildlife.

There are so many amazing things to see in Australia!

Here are our top ten must-sees:

The Great Barrier Reef  is a must-see for anyone interested in marine life or snorkelling/diving. It’s the largest coral reef in the world and home to an incredible array of colourful fish and other sea creatures. 

Sydney Opera House Is one of the most recognisable buildings in the world. It’s an architectural marvel, and you should pay it a visit while in Sydney. However, go on a weekday morning if you want to see the Opera House without the crowds. You’ll be amazed at how big and beautiful it is!

The Sydney Harbour Bridge is one of the most iconic landmarks in Australia. Standing at 134 meters tall, it’s one of the most elevated steel-arch bridges in the world. And if you’re feeling adventurous, you can climb to the top of the bridge for breathtaking views of the city and harbour below.

Kakadu National Park is another excellent place to see Australian wildlife. There are many different animals, including crocodiles, dingoes and kangaroos!

The formations are an impressive sight and are found along the Southern Ocean coastline of Australia. The Twelve Apostles offer stunning ocean views, sandy beaches and grassed vegetation.
