Whether you’re into vibrant cities or wild ocean adventures, I’ve found that Australia has more than enough to keep you busy (and totally wowed). I’ve explored buzzing neighborhoods, snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef, and still feel like there’s so much left to see. Trust me—you won’t run out of things to do here.
