Top Australian holiday destinations to visit

Fancy an Australian holiday instead? There's plenty of beauty in our own backyard, so check out our loans for domestic travel if you're up for an adventure a little bit closer to home.

Great Barrier Reef

The Great Barrier Reef (and the Whitsundays)

Located off the coast of Queensland, the Great Barrier Reef is one of the natural wonders of the world for good reason. As the world's largest coral reef system, it's one of the best places to snorkel, scuba dive and explore our ocean wildlife.

Uluru at Sunset

Uluru

In the heart of the Australian outback, Uluru is a sacred site for the Indigenous Anangu people and a popular destination for visitors both foreign and domestic. Camping near this 348m tall monolith is a must-have experience.

Large rocky cliffs and characteristic blue haze in the Blue Moun

The Blue Mountains

The Blue Mountains - able to be reached in a short day trip from Sydney - offer some of the most stunning and peaceful views in all of Australia. It's a great spot for camping, hiking, and exploring caves, and there are some mountain towns you can visit as well.

Sea Lions at Seal Bay, Kangaroo Island

Australia's third-largest island, Kangaroo Island, is just a brief ferry ride off the coast of South Australia. It's home to a vast array of wildlife, including koalas, sea lions and yes, kangaroos!

Aboriginal pictograph, Kakadu National Park, Arnhem Land, Australia

Kakadu National Park

A certified UNESCO World Heritage site, Kakadu National Park is Australia's largest national park, covering over 20,000 square kilometres. Starting from an approximate two-hour drive from Darwin, you can explore the traditional lands of the Bininj/Mungguy people at your own pace.

Great Ocean Road

Great Ocean Road
