There’s a lot to see in Australia – that’s undeniable – but there are some things that you have to put above everything else. The following attractions are the top 10 must see sights in Australia, so if you miss these off of your travel itinerary, you haven’t had the full Down Under experience.

Uluru

must see sights in australia

The greatest symbol of the outback and possibly the most impressive single rock formation you’ll see in your life, Uluru – or Ayers Rock – stands tall and proud in the Northern Territory. Covering an area of 3.33km squared and reaching 348m high, you can no longer climb it due to aboriginal culture, but you can explore around its entire 9.4km base. You can see Uluru best with our pick of Uluru Tours and Uluru Tours from Darwin. From here you may wish to consider Uluru to Cairns Tours.

Sydney Harbour

must see sights in Australia

We might be cheating with this one, because when you visit Sydney Harbour, you can take in two great attractions in one. Sydney Harbour is home to the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge, which dramatically affect the skyline of the city. Since 1973, the Opera House has welcomed the best stars of entertainment to perform under its striking roof, and the Harbour Bridge has welcomed visitors into the city centre from north of Sydney.

Great Ocean Road

From Anglesea to Allansford in Victoria, the Great Ocean Road is one of the most spectacular drives in Australia. Short enough at 243km to do in one day, highlights include Great Otway National Park, London Bridge, The Arch and the Twelve Apostles, all surrounded by the crashing waves of the ocean.

Great Barrier Reef

must see sights in australia

On your East Coast Australia Tours, grab the chance to see the most famous underwater world on Earth, the Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef with 900 islands and 2,900 individual reefs spread over 2,600km from the Queensland coast. As a result, there are many water activities to do, including snorkelling, diving, sailing and glass bottom boat tours. You can even take a skydive as you look out towards the reef.

Ningaloo Reef

must see sights in Australia

On the other side of Australia on the west coast, the Ningaloo Reef is Australia’s largest fringing reef – just 10 feet from the shore is where some parts of it begin. Due to the corals, there are many marine species that visit for feeding, such as whale sharks and manta rays, which encourages boat tours and independent snorkelling trips. You can discover the Ningaloo Reef on Perth to Broome Adventure Tours

Whitsunday Islands

must see sights in australia

A collection of 74 paradise islands make up the Whitsundays. The silica white sands, different shades of blue and varying shapes of land are perfect for sunbathers, sailors, snorkellers and explorers, while many of the islands can accommodate visitors with hotels and apartments. It’s also just a short boat ride to the Great Barrier Reef. Check out this world famous attraction with Whitsunday Tours.

Tasmania

tasmania

The largest landmass off of the mainland, Tasmania might be Australia’s most picturesque state. Deep within, it’s a landscape of mountains, far-flung views and lakes not far from that of New Zealand, and the waterways continue into the pretty harbour town of Hobart.

Hunter Valley

Accommodation

The rolling hills and patchwork-quilt landscape of the Hunter Valley make it perfect for wineries and vineyards. Producing some of the finest wines in Australia, you can take a tour on foot and sample the local creations, or take to the skies in a hot air balloon for panoramic views of New South Wales.

Kakadu National Park

must see sights in australia

The largest national park in Australia, Kakadu covers 2000 square kilometres of the Northern Territory. From aboriginal history and rock art to spotting 10m wild crocodiles in the network of rivers, you can experience true wilderness here in a range of landscapes including marsh wetlands, rocky stone and rugged ridges dotted with waterfalls and separated by forest.

Fraser Island

must see sights in australia

A beach that stretches for 75 miles, rusting shipwrecks, wild dingoes, freshwater lakes and a rainforest growing completely out of sand, Fraser Island is just one other natural wonder to be found in Australia, and should be on your list of places to see in Queensland. Check Out Fraser Island 4wd Tours and Fraser Island Adventure Tours
