The Australian Travel Guide

Australia is the world's largest island spanning 4,000 km from east to west and 3,200 km from top to bottom. This makes it the same size as the US if you take away Alaska. Australia has 37,000 km of coast line that is boarded by two oceans and five seas. Australia's geography allows for an incredibly diverse range of landscapes of interest and beauty.

Travelling Around Australia

Australia is vast and because of the distance between cities the best way to travel between each is via plane. To see parts of Australia outside the major city centres, you may want to take alternative transport, maybe even drive. It is probably useful to obtain a set of Australian road rules to familiarise yourself with national laws. Do not forget that Australians drive on the left hand side of the road. If attempting an outback trek, plan your route carefully and stick to main roads. It is easy to become lost in the outback especially if the area is unknown to you.
