Australia is the sixth largest country in the world and is located in Oceania. The place is known for its natural beauty and exotic formations, extensive coastline and its own free and happy lifestyle. The Australian capital is Canberra, although this title is often confused with Sydney, which is the largest city in the country, with around 5 of the 25 million inhabitants living in the country.
With deserts, the largest barrier reef in the world, incredible beaches, vast forests, pink lakes and curious animals, such as colas and kangaroos, Australia wins for its eccentricity and at the same time for its quality of life. There are many fans and lovers of the country across the globe and traveling to Australia is truly an unforgettable experience.
Australia holds the most incredible discoveries, with a first-world country structure and destinations that mix nature and urbanity in a unique way. With iconic buildings and the vitality of Sydney, the lively center of Melbourne and its alleys, the arid and sacred landscapes of the Australian outback, waves on the beaches of the Gold Coast, diving amid marine diversity in the Great Barrier Reef, wineries, mountains, roads as far as the eye can see... it's difficult not to fall in love with the country and not feel a little taste of “I want more”.
When to go to Australia - best time
The seasons in Australia occur during the same period as in Brazil, and as it is a large country, just like ours, each region has a distinct climate. Although it is hotter in the North of Australia, the same is not true in the South, where it is cold in winter.
Australian cities are happier and full of life during the summer (December, January, February). In winter, cities like Perth, Sydney and Melbourne are colder — temperatures are not usually as extreme, but there is snow in the mountains and the country also has ski resorts.
How to get to Australia
The main airports in Australia are Sydney Airport, Melbourne Airport, Brisbane Airport and Perth Airport.
