Nature & Outdoors

Queensland’s diverse landscapes range from the world's largest sand island, K'gari, to the 98% pure silica sands of Whitehaven Beach. The region's topography includes Wallaman Falls—Australia's highest single-drop waterfall—and the dramatic Barron Falls in the Wet Tropics. Urban highlights feature heritage-listed botanical gardens and riverfront parklands in Brisbane, while inland areas showcase semi-arid salt lakes and the volcanic peaks of the Mackay region.
