Queensland Holidays
Queensland is the Sunshine State, occupying almost one quarter of the continent. Its fantastic climate means more than 300 days of sunshine every year, making it one of the most popular vacation destinations in Australia. Here you’ll find the Great Barrier Reef; and the Whitsunday islands, a tropical paradise with pure white sand atolls scattered across clear turquoise waters.
