    SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, December 19, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Australia is the perfect place for an adventure. This huge island is packed with epic landmarks and travel hotspots that provide an abundance of entertainment. If you want to tour Australia, many fly to Melbourne to kick off their adventure from the south, travelling north along the eastern seaboard. Starting in the south with Melbourne, it's usual for adventurers to take in the artistic atmosphere of the south's major city before travelling north-eastward along the coast to reach Sydney.

Flights to Sydney are also available for those that want to begin their journey from New South Wales's capital city, located roughly midway down the east coast, offering freedom to either trek north or south.

In Sydney, you can visit well-known landmarks such as the Sydney Opera House, take a walk along the massive Harbour Bridge or relax on the infamous sands of Bondi Beach soaking in the Antipodean sunshine.

Continuing North, reaching Queensland and the Gold Coast, famous the world over for its incredible surf there are also numerous theme parks located here such as Dream World, Warner Bros. Movie World and Wet'n'Wild Water World, to name just a few. Continuing up the coast to Cairns and Far North Queensland, the climate begins to humidify and the waters become clearer, making for some great snorkelling and diving. FNQ even has a rainforest system, the Daintree National Park, that rivals even the fabled Amazon for bio diversity and beauty.

Many adventurers choose to skip across to Perth in the west from the north, but those that continue their journey through the Northern Territory have the opportunity to visit the jaw-dropping Kakadu National Park and moving into Western Australia the unique Bungle Bungles.

These Northern landmarks are a must-see and their location offers the chance to pick up on the the North Australian Highways to reach Perth (don't let the name fool you, it's predominantly Western.)

At some point during your Australian adventure, Uluru (Ayers Rock) is a sight to behold. Tourists wanting to visit Uluru can grab an internal flight to reach the nearby city of Alice Springs, where there are numerous hotels to stay.

There's so much to do and see in Australia that it could take a few months to properly explore it - so cheap flights to Australia are always on hand at Flight Centre to make staying there for longer a more affordable option.
