Skydiving, Great Barrier Reef   

Does the idea of free-falling at 15,000 feet towards colourful corals swaying beneath the beautiful blues excite you? If you just happened to envision it, add skydiving over the Great Barrier Reef to your Aussie vacay checklist.
Soak in sweeping views of this nature’s marvel teeming with vibrant coral formations and azure ocean. Whoop it up with your friends or go solo, either way this adrenaline-pumping leap will stay with you for years to come. 

White Water Rafting, Tasmania   

White water rafting in Tasmania’s Franklin River is a MUST-DO for lovers of the fierce rush of rapids. Paddle your way through the heart-pounding rapids of this gorgeous river as it winds through rainforests and rustic landscapes. Add to that the same wild rapids mingling with the serenity of Tasmanian wilderness, making the experience not just exhilarating but also soothing. 

Shark Cage Diving on the Eyre Peninsula, South Australia 

Head to Eyre Peninsula for the ultimate underwater thrill. This is where you can have a face-off with great white sharks (from a safe diving cage). Feel mesmerised and thrilled all at once as you watch the apex predators swim JUST a few inches away. Steal a moment or two just to look around and let the stunning aquatic scenery humble you.  

Climbing, Sydney Harbour Bridge 

Scaling the towering arches of the bird’s eye views of Sydney’s skyline is a rewarding experience like no other. And the best part? This easy-going adventure is perfect for almost everyone – so be it your family or your friends, this calls for the perfect group activity. While the climb is thrilling and builds up a sense of anticipation, the guide makes it even more meaningful by engaging you in tales from the history of this bridge and the city.  

Hang Gliding in Byron Bay 

Hang gliding in the iconic surf town of Byron Bay makes a fantastic way to capture the panoramic scenery of Cape Byron Nature Reserve and surrounding landscapes. Glide through the giddy and refreshing winds over the lush hinterlands and pristine beaches. Be on the lookout for dolphins frolicking in the ocean or whales passing by (the perfect time for this is between May and November). 

Mountain Biking in Flinders Ranges, South Australia   

If you like land-based adventures, then you will enjoy every bit of your time biking across the Flinders Ranges. Opt for this thrill-inducing experience and get set to ride through a 600-million-year-old landscape featuring dramatic red cliffs and ancient gorges. While this adventure alone will keep you hooked, you might also want to opt for a guided safari to learn more about the Aboriginal history for a wholesome Australian holiday!
