Beach Holidays

Uncrowded. Unspoilt. Australia’s white sandy beaches go on forever. Stretching almost 50,000 kilometres, Australia’s coastline offers one sandy beach for around very five kilometres! With many Australians living a short distance from the coast, the beach is an integral part of the Aussie laidback lifestyle – the Australians swim, fish, sail, play, party and eat by the beach.

The Aussie coastline is more than just white, glorious beaches. Small towns and huge cities bustle at the shore. With blissful scenery and a vast range of activities you can do as much or little as you like. Indulge in retreats, spas and barefoot luxury on the Whitsunday islands. Get close to nature, enjoy sunset drinks and let the sounds of the Coral Ocean lull you to sleep every night on a Great Barrier Reef Island. Head to one of the 75 unspoilt surf beaches in the wine-growing region of Margaret River. Let Wineglass Bay, rated one of the world’s best beaches, in Tasmania take your breath away. Take a whale watch tour or join a game of beach cricket in Southern Queensland. Kick back with the freshest fish and chips and a cool beer on Manly beach in Sydney.

Wherever you are on the Australian coastline something magical happens the closer you get to the ocean. Perhaps it’s the gentle sea breeze, the laughter, the smell of fresh air, the casual atmosphere or the sound of crashing waves. So go on, take the plunge, you will be spellbound by the beaches and coastline of Australia!
