Queensland occupies about 25% of the continent of Australia, so there’s lots of space for you to explore. It is Australia’s fastest growing State with 3.8 million people…2.1 million visitors are welcomed each year. Queensland also boasts a broad multi-cultural community including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander descendants with cultures spanning 40,000 years.

Queensland offers everything a grey nomad could ask for. The climate, of course, is a very big plus. In the cold winter months, southern travellers head to destinations in the north such as Cooktown, Port Douglas, Mission Beach and Karumba. It’s great to spend the chilly season playing cards, fishing, and sharing happy hour drinks with an army of like-minded travellers.

There’s certainly something for everybody and the lure of Outback adventure is irresistible to most. Many grey nomads now have Longreach, where the revered Stockman’s Hall of Fame is located; and Winton, where Waltzing Matilda was penned; and the legendary Outback town on Birdsville, firmly on their big lap itinerary.

You could travel for years here and not begin to see it all.

Here are just a few reasons to visit Queensland:

• Tropical Climate
• Superb Beaches

• Relaxed Atmosphere

The list could go on and on but in a few words, Queensland is the ideal getaway. It is made for holidays.

When you get home you feel like you have had a holiday, and you know you want to return soon.
