Such a beautiful fresh water lake, only the depth changes the colour, so turquoise in the shallows. Try cleaning your jewellery in the sand. I have cleaned my watch and watch face many times, that tells you how soft the sand is. So pure.

While visiting Noosa twice last year in January and June I did a lot of bushwalking through their pristine National Park. We have quite a few National Parks here in NSW but none of them compare to this stunning treasure. They were updating the walkways into the National Park when I was there in June last year, but I personally found their walkways were well maintained when I was there previously in January 2018. There is wheel chair access for the disabled and also well paved walking track for families with young children with prams and also the elderly. The best part of this pristine National Park walk are the beaches you come across on your way up which are Tea Tree Bay, Granite Bay and further into the National Park (depends on your fitness level) is the beautiful Alexandria Bay. And before you venture into this beautiful National Park make sure you stop into the Kiosk located at the information centre within the National Park, they make the best coffee ???? I have tasted in Noosa. Seriously a great pick me up for your long walk up into this pristine treasure. Absolutely loved it.

We had a small group of US based travel agents in Brisbane for a limited time and the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary was the perfect spot for them to get their koala cuddle fix! It is a comfortable walk through the grounds and there is a complete range of iconic Australian wildlife. We stopped in for lunch and had time to feed kangaroos, cuddle koalas and get great photos, see wombat, dingo, cassowary, kookaburras and cockatoos, just to mention a few. Then we took the Mirimar cruising the Brisbane river back to South Bank. Its the only way to go!

This spectacular experience travels over bridges and through tunnels hand-made by North Queensland's pioneers over 100 years ago.

What a marvelous and memorable experience! Our holidays in Whitsundays have provided us with ultimate satisfactions, for which we visited Great Barrier Reefs, as well as Whitsunday Islands in one trip. With Great Barrier Reefs as 1 of the 7 Natrue Wonders in the world, and Whiteheaven Beach ranked among the top 10 beaches of our planet, holiday in Whitsundays is highly recommended by me. Regarding how to organize the trips, I wish I could offer some assistance: Transport --- A. Flight: There are airports in Proserpine, and Hamilton Island. B. Train: Spirit of Queensland running between Brisbane to Cairns along the Queensland coast, stop at Proserpine. C. Cars: Driving to Airlie Beach. Accommodation --- A. Airlie Beach: As the departure point of many Day tours, it is a pretty Seaside Resort Town with beaches, parkland and many shops. Great for families. B. Hamilton Island: Served with an Airport, a wildlife park, shops, and as the pickup point of Day tours, this beautiful island is most favorable among young adults. C. Daydream Island: With regular ferry services to both Hamilton Island and Airlie Beach, it is gaining popularity due to its heavenly beautiful settings. With a living coral pond and a Aquarium, Daydream Island is perfect for family with kids. D. Taking a multi-days tour on one of the tall ships for sensational exploring experiences. E. Hayman island, etc,: if it will not be your first trip to the region. Hope you could enjoy your holidays just like we have had.

I have traveled extensively and this stretch of beach beats plenty others I have seen, including Santa Monica, Hoi An, and others. If you are escaping the colder climates of Australia and beyond, this beach will be all you need to feel fantastic. Beautiful clean sand, gorgeous rolling surf, superb sunrises and moonrises, all patrolled by Australia’s famous surf life savers. Ideal for romantic strolls along the beach. Don’t forget to swim between the red and yellow flags, and bring your sunscreen and hat. Who says there is nothing to do? Just enjoy the world class beach and stunning vistas.

We stayed at The Peninsula Boutique Hotel, at the far end of this awesomely serene Beach (just off Main Street, at the town end). The hotel, sits back but next to the beach and is ideally scenically located for the beach. Four Mile Beach is a Stunning view to see & a pleasure to explore.. Its wide; clean and the sand is not grainy underfoot.. Yes, there can sometimes be jellyfish in the water - BUT, you can swim in the safe / secure netted area (at the one end of the beach), snorkel & see the sea life very safely.. There’s also a lifeguard here, should you get into distress - again, adding to the safety of this lovely beach.. Additionally, you can cycle down this beach easily and safely - as well as enjoying a gentle stroll???? Just, don’t forget the sunscreen - whatever your doing on the beach????
