From the smallest wonders of Australia's tropical fish, rare plants, birds and gems, to world treasures like the Great Barrier Reef, Uluru and Kakadu National Park – the country is a spectacular canvas of nature’s finest work.
Providing a home to plant and animal species found nowhere else on Earth – intriguing creatures such as kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, bilbies, and kookaburras (to name a few) – and custodian of 17 unique World Heritage Areas, some of the oldest rainforests on Earth and one-third of the world’s protected marine areas, Australia is treasured by human-kind for its natural and/or cultural importance to us all. - Tourism Australia
