1. Uluru, Northern Territory
The heart of Australia is Uluru. It couldn’t be further out of the way, but a trip to the red centre is oh so rewarding!
2. Whartons Beach, Cape Arid National Park, Esperance, Western Australia
Home to Australia’s best beaches is Esperance in Western Australia. The best beaches are out at the little known Cape Arid 100km East of the town. Pack your towel, because you won't be able to resist getting wet!
3. Horsehead Rock, Bermagui, New South Wales
The Sapphire coast in NSW is quite incredible for amazing rocks and stunning beaches. But Horsehead rock wins every time for the most awesome! Stare at the enormous natural horse head drinking from the ocean - it has to be seen to be believed!
