Apart from the normal school holidays and internationally recognised holidays such as Christmas and Easter, Australia also celebrates numerous national public holidays such as Australia Day in January, ANZAC Day in April, the Queen's birthday in June, and Labour Day in October. Public holidays are popular times to take a mini break. Generally people will not travel too far from home, instead preferring to head up or down the coast for a few hours. Jump in the car, pop on your favourite CD and follow the scenic roads just a few hours north, south or west of the capitol cities to discover a whole new world of experiences.
It only takes a short drive to leave your everyday world behind. Discover a beautiful, beachside town or head inland to a quaint bed and breakfast in the mountains or in country village. If you are organised and book in advance, these public holidays are a great time to pick up some bargain holiday packages.
Australia is a land of diversity and offers holidays to suit people from all walks of life. For those who enjoy being active and discovering the outdoors, there are a variety of holiday packages that include leisure activities such diving, golf and bushwalking. Often these deals will include shuttle buses to and from your resort or hotel, which is a great money-saver and is very convenient.
If your adrenaline junkie days are over and you fancy yourself as more of a foodie who enjoys the finer things in life, there are many holiday destinations that are perfect for relaxing and enjoying some of the world's finest foods and wines. Regardless of where you are in Australia, all states and territories have a region dedicated to producing some the world's most exotic wines, freshest seafood, and premium meats, not to mention succulent cheeses and chocolates. Tourism Australia's official website has some fantastic information that will help you plan a mind-blowing holiday that will surpass all your culinary needs.
