Activities, Excursions of Great Ocean Road (Australia).

Australia is the country/continent "down-under". It is completely surrounded by water and - except for the coastal regions - a huge desert (Red Center). Main tourist attractions are the Great Barrier Reef (Cairns), the Great Ocean Road, Ayers Rock (Alice Springs), Sydney and all the magnificent wildlife (in particular birds and reptiles). Melbourne is very sport oriented and Tasmania is proud to have the "best air". Having a BBQ on the beach on Christmas day is normal in Australia, but quite special to most northern visitors.

The Great Ocean Road is a very scenic stretch along the southern ocean, south-west of Melbourne. Many surfers have a great time here. Famous are the Twelve Apostles rock formations in the water.
