Australia States & Territories

Australia may be a small continent, but it's a huge country, with diverse ecosystems, climates, scenery, and Australian cities to explore. This section gives you an overview of each state and territory--and then asks for your contributions. (This is a wiki, remember!)

In each section, we're looking for travelers who have been to Australia to fill in what they can about some of the sites they've seen, tours they've taken, activities they enjoyed, and more. Climbed the Sydney Harbour Bridge? Snorkeled in the Great Barrier Reef? Tell us about it!

In these sections you'll also come across great stories from Travel + Leisure magazine, Departures magazine, and Australian Food and Australian Wine to inspire you.

Start by picking a state or city:

• Melbourne
• Queensland
• Western Australia
• Northern Territory
• Sydney & New South Wales
• Tasmania
• South Australia
• Capital Territory
