Australia is one of the world's most popular tourist destinations, and with good reason. Here is a brief list of some of the things that are in store for you if you choose to check out this amazing place.
Beaches
This kind of goes without saying, given that Australia is a large island. The beaches in this country are second to none, and you have what seems like an endless choice of beach or to the head. Beaches in cities and towns are popular and will often be crowded with amateur surfers and city people looking to cool off on the weekend. Sydney is packed with great beaches like Bondi and Coogee, which are popular with backpackers and Byron Bay is known for its hippy feel and a great beach, especially if you want to lern how to surf. There are also plenty of village beaches to choose from, and if you have the means to reach them, you may find that you have only one there. Cactus Beach in South Australia is a great example of a pretty far off the beaten track. If you plan on spending some time in Australia, remote beaches are just excuses to buy their own car to reach them.
barbecues
saying 'throw another shrimp on the Barbie' is not known for no reason - Australians love their barbecue and claim that they do science. Add to that some of the world's best beef and you have a recipe for a fantastic meal of barbecue. Barbecues in Australia are usually more about booze as they are about food, and almost always turn out to be a big party.
passion for the sport
I doubt that any other country in the world gets in your sporting events quite the same way as Australia does not. Australians to support the new level and at national and international scene. People will get just as excited to offer more support for their local Australian football team because of their Olympic athletes. If you have a chance to visit Australia during major sporting events, you can be sure that there will be plenty of people in pubs watching and cheering on their country. Or, if you are able to land tickets for local events like rugby, cricket or Aussie Rules, make sure you take a chance. Make it more fun and cheer to choose sides, and you will experience a friendly Aussie sporting rivalry firsthand.
desert camp
Australia is a vast country and the scenery is varied. Camping is a fantastic way to explore Australia's nature and explore some of the more rural towns and meet the locals out of town setting. Camping is another compelling reason to buy a car and often, backpackers leaving the country will sell your car with camping gear included. If you can meet locally with little knowledge and 4x4 transport, then even better as it will really be able to get out there. If you do not have their own equipment and transportation, there are plenty of companies out there that offer camping tours. There are even camps along the road between Melbourne and Adelaide, where you can hand feed wild kangaroos.
people
Australians are among the most open and friendly in the world and if you get away from the tourist trail got even better. Aussies love to party and if you are able to make some local friends are sure to be in for some crazy nights, whether it be partying until dawn in Sydney or the title of the bachelor and spinster-a (B & S) the ball in the country. Australians can handle their alcohol, so unless you want to end up praying toilet in the morning, it is not advisable to try to keep up with them.
