For the intrepid
Australia is Waiting for You - Travel At Home This Year!
All around Australia, local communities are ready and waiting to welcome you. So stop in for a coffee, take that tour and book that boutique stay you've been dreaming about.
It's up to us to eat, drink, shop and explore local so we can all recover together.
Supporting local is all about strengthening Aussie communities, boosting jobs and reducing your own carbon footprint. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to support local on your next trip. You might spend a night (or two!) in a bushfire-affected region, buy farm-fresh produce or book an eco-friendly experience.
When you support local, you can be sure that while you’re making memories, you’re also making a difference.
Visit Bush Fire Affected Communities
The bushfires that affected Australia in the 2019/2020 summer touched everyone near and far, and prompted Aussies around the country to reach out to their friends and neighbours. As Australians rallied around impacted communities, several social initiatives launched to lend a hand.

Explore Nature and National Parks
With their ancient gorges, pounding waterfalls and tranquil bushland, adventure awaits in Australia’s national parks. Renowned for its wild beauty, Australia’s natural landscapes are nothing less than dramatic. Even just minutes from a major city you can discover rainforests and red deserts, see ancient Aboriginal rock art sites, climb snow-capped mountains and swim in clear waters fringed by white-sand beaches. Experience the natural wonders of Australia from a luxury eco-resort, a campground right on the beach or with an Aboriginal guide. Wherever your adventures take you, it’s a chance to unplug, reconnect with nature and reignite your appetite for adventure.
