Where are you going for your next holiday? How about Australia?
Australia has got 37,000km of coastline and the best beaches in the world! The GreatBarrier Reef is off the north-east coast of Australia. It’s the largest coral reef in the sea! You can take a boat to it and dive there. It’s a fantastic undersea world.
Inland Australia is called ‘the outback’. There are lot of wild camels, and there are some you can ride, too! There are fantastic national parks, where you can camp under the stars. In the Uluru National Park, there’s a very big sandstone rock, called Ayers Rock. It looks amazing in the evening sun.
Do you like adventure? Then you can take a canoe trip along the Murray River. It’s Australia’s longest river. Another good trip for adventurous people is to the Blue Mountains. These are west Sydney in New South Wales. The mountains look blue and they contain lots of unusual animals and plants.
Australia has got its own rainforest. It’s along the coast of North Queensland. It’s only 900,000 hectares today, but it once covered all of Australia. You can see lots of interesting animals in the rainforest, but be careful of the crocodiles!
Do you like wildlife? Australia has got a unique type of animal - marsupials. These include kangaroos, koalas and platypuses. You can see them in the Yanchep National Park, near Perth in Western Australia. Remember the koalas aren’t teddy bears. They can be dangerous!
