Our beaches are also world-famous, from the sun-kissed Gold Coast, to the laid back surf beaches of the Sunshine Coast and the palm-tree lined beaches of the tropics. Queensland is also the best adventure destination in the world - from diving the Great Barrier Reef, to sailing in the Whitsundays, surfing the Gold and Sunshine Coast beaches, hiking the rainforest and exploring the vast distances of Queensland's Outback.
