Resorts in Australia provide some of the best vacation
opportunities for many people and the State of Queensland
is the best place to look for resorts. Queensland has all
of the natural attributes to make resorts attractive and
the climate is warm.
The beautiful beaches, tropical jungles, Great Barrier
Reef and warm weather all year round make Queensland a popular
resort location for water sports, relaxing on the beach
or playing golf.

The day time temperatures
in the capital city of Brisbane range from the 70's during
the winter to the 90's in the summer. It is important to
note that the further north you travel, the warmer the weather.
You should also know that the Australian summer (December
- March) is the rainy or wet season.

Many of the resorts are located north of Brisbane and are
closer to the Great Barrier Reef and the Whitsunday
Islands. The Whitsunday
Islands are a group of tropical islands off the coast
of Queensland that are ideally suited for a number of relaxing
activities such as sailing, snorkeling, scuba diving or just
relaxing on the beach.
There are now over 500,000 visitors each year to the Whitsunday
Islands because of what they have to offer.
