Horse
Riding / Outback Adventures

Queensland's
Country & Outback is where legends are made, where doctors
make house calls by plane. It's the birth of a nation, full
of old outback stations and where no two towns are the same.
Visitors can experience the Outback on horse back, or join the
camel racing circuit that is becoming quite popular. It's the
people of Queensland's Outback, living in complete harmony in
a timeless landscape, who can make a visit such a memorable
event. You're always welcome in Queensland's Outback.

birds in their natural environmen,t feel the wind in your hair,
the sun on your face and just enjoy this beautiful environment.

hemisphere. You can enjoy everything from the latest rides and

Kayaking
/ White Water Rafting
|
White
water rafting is all about team adventure! It's not for the
faint-hearted, but an exhilarating ride down a raging river
in an inflatable boat provides excitement that will be difficult
to beat on any holiday. Not only is white water rafting exciting,
it's a fantastic source of exercise. Rivers in the Far North
vary from mild to wild, with everything in between. Depending
on your taste you can opt for gentle rivers with a minimum of
white water, or raging torrents where you need to be on your
toes. .

Deserted
Beaches

Have
you ever experienced the joy of walking out of a pristine, tropical
rainforest onto a magnificent, white sand, blue water swimming
beach and finding it totally deserted. It's as if time has stood
still since the days of the early explorers. We have a staggeringly
beautiful coastline boasting white sand, crystal clear waters
and pristine coral reefs perfect for snorkelling and just to
savour this beautiful part of nature. Most amazingly of all,
these awesome beaches are deserted (most of the time).

world's longest cable car ride. This is a most breathtaking
experience seeing the rainforest from above. You get a sense

canopy. The Skyrail is usually taken as a package in conjunction
with the Kuranda Scenic Train. The Scenic Railway day tour is
undoubtedly one of the world's greatest adventures and an essential
experience for international visitors. Climbing more than 300
metres through dense, tropical rainforest, the trip is a 90-minute
journey through deep river gorges, rugged mountain ranges and
spectacular waterfalls.

Diving / Snorkelling

Australia. The reef, created by living coral over the span of
18 million years, is 2000 Km (1243 Mi) long and in places more
than 500 meters (1640 Ft) thick. Coral is very particular about
the conditions in which it grows, and the waters off the coast
of Queensland. You can base yourself anywhere from Port Douglas

Crocodile
/ Whale Watching

From
the clear blue waters of the coral sea, the massive shape of
a humpback whale - one of the world's largest creatures - rises
majestically. In an awesome display of its size and strength
as it lifts its entire body from the water, crashing back into
the sea with a spectacular splash. Whale watching along the
Queensland coast is awesome. If your more into the fear factor,
you can't go too much past this prehistoric predator. How Steve
Irwin does it, is beyond me.
