About Australia

Most of Australia's population lives in the climatically more favoured eastern, southern, and southwestern coastal areas. Between half and two-thirds of the country is desert or scrubland with a low and unreliable rainfall, and this region is almost uninhabited. Nearly half of Australia lies within the tropics.

Australia has some of the best natural scenery, the weirdest wildlife, the most brilliant scuba diving and snorkeling, the best beaches, the oldest rainforest, the oldest human civilization, the best wines and the best weather.

Australia’s beautiful cities are cosmopolitan while remaining pedestrian-friendly and the rest of the nation is striking and untamed wilderness with quirky but charming towns scattered in between.
