Welcome to Your
First Time in Queensland

Find the experiences that will change you

You’re thinking about visiting Queensland. Or better still, you’re booked and on your way.

First things first, don’t be overwhelmed. We know, we’re pretty big. Like, five times the size of Japan, and seven times the size of Great Britain-big.

And nestled within our state you’ll find the world's oldest surviving tropical rainforest. The Great Barrier Reef. Pre-historic relics found under the red dirt of the Outback. Kilometre upon kilometre of stunning coastline, and two Indigenous cultures that have called these lands and waters home for thousands of years.

Still don’t know where to begin? Just keep scrolling, and dive in head-first. It's time to find the Queensland experiences that will change you.

A whole new world

It’s a lot to navigate - but, we’re here to guide you through it all to find your ideal holiday. The holiday where you’ll learn something new, gain a greater appreciation for the natural world, and take home stories that will never fade.

Will you stand on the beach and watch baby turtles take their first steps? Join a Kuku Yalanji man as you hunt and gather using traditional methods in the state’s far north? Enjoy immaculate, locally sourced seafood caught that day? Or maybe this is the holiday where you learn something about yourself, others, or the world.

Let’s start with the top shelf. The place you dream of before you drift off to sleep. You know the one? If so, be sure to head to our Great Barrier Reef, beaches, islands, Outback, city, or nature and wildlife experience sections to get started.

Unsure about entry or what to pack for your first time to Queensland? Be sure to check out travel information first, so you’re fully prepped to keep dreaming – and to start making plans.
