New South Wales 

Laze on a white sandy beach, hike in the fresh mountain air, journey to the red earth of the Outback or soothe your soul in one of the many Heritage-listed national parks. New South Wales offers a spectrum of experiences for adventurous travellers everywhere.

The harbour capital of Sydney is widely known for its iconic Opera House and Harbour Bridge. A true melting pot of cultures, Sydney hosted the 2000 Olympic Games, the 2003 Rugby World Cup and is regarded by many as one of the world’s great cities.

New South Wales is a large State, so take time to explore. Venture west of Sydney to discover the spectacular Blue Mountains. Head two hours north to the celebrated Hunter Valley wine region. Or take in the quiet coastal townships of the beautiful South Coast.

Each region has its own distinct local flavour and, with so many individual attractions to choose from, each is an experience in itself.
