For holiday makers in Australia, Airlie Beach in the Whitsunday area which is situated in Queensland is a town that is recognized as one of the favorite destination for a great number of scenic charms and attractions. Since it is geographically close to the Great Barrier Reef, it is called the “Heart of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef”. And there are numerous hotels for the tourists’ comfortable lodgings to choose from, so take your pick.
Flights to the Gold Coast area will take you into Brisbane International Airport. From there its a 45 minute journey north. Connecting flights to get to Brisbane can be taken from Melbourne, Sydney, Singapore, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur – you name it.
It really goes without saying that finding accommodation to suit your requirements has never been easier than it is now. Just have a look on the internet to accommodation in Queensland, or in Brisbane or Airlie Beach or where ever is your preference. You will find a plethora of hotels, motels, all forms of accommodation – even tents in the outback, if you are so inclined.
What to see in the Gold Coast
If you want to see a lot but your time is somewhat limited then you will need to plan meticulously. There is too much to see and do in a short space of time and the amount of traveling is incredible. After all, Queensland is 715 thousand square miles in area or 1,853,000 square km. Compare that to the United Kingdom which is only 245,000 square km.
The beach is undoubtedly the biggest tourist pull to Queensland and with the added attraction of the Great Barrier Reef its really no wonder at all that this is so. There is sailing, jet skiing, yachting, water skiing, cruises, windsurfing, scuba diving, snorkelling – any water activity and its all here. So plenty to keep the kids entertained while you chill out and relax and unwind.
