Australia

What to see in Australia, when to go and how to plan the distances between coastal cities, the outback and the Great Barrier Reef.

1 city

Australia’s population is concentrated in a handful of coastal cities, while the interior consists of vast, sparsely populated areas. Distances need to be planned in flight hours: it takes more than four hours to travel from one coast to the other.

The seasons are reversed, and the tropical north follows a different calendar from the temperate south.
