Beaches If you are looking to experience the beaches of Australia, you will never run out of options to go to. As Australia is an island, going to the beach has become such a normal thing for most of the locals. In fact, if you decide to hit the beach on a weekend, you will see many of them just relaxing and having fun under the sun, testing the waters to ride the waves.
In Sydney alone there are the world renowned Byron Beach which is great to learn surfing, and the interestingly named Cogee Beach and of course, perhaps the most famous beach in the world - Bondi Beach, situated some 7km from central Sydney.
Besides the famous beaches there are loads of others that are much less well known but just as nice, such as Cactus Beach which is south of Sydney and much quieter than the aforementioned.
A Passion for Sports No one is as fanatic as an Australian sports addict. Every Australian is known for being very passionate about their teams whether it is in the national or international level. They know their games very well and teams so much so you should consider visiting Australia during the time of a sporting event so you can experience their passion and love not just for the game but also the team players.
A Passion for Sports Australians are very sports-minded. They are very avid players and most of all, passionate spectators of several sports may it be at the national or the international level. No one can compete with the fanaticism of Australians to a team that they support. It does not matter if it is just a local football game or an Olympic event; an Australian will support a team to the end.
Sporting Events Australian people are hugely passionate about their sports and their teams, be that on a local level, a national level or an international level. Witness an international rugby event and you will see what I mean, or how about the Ashes - the cricket event between Australia and England.

You can then really soak up the fantastic, friendly and boisterous atmosphere.
Everyone who visits Australia should explore the country's beautiful landscape. The best way to do this is to go camping and to indulge in a few nights of peace and quiet, far from the hustle and bustle of the city. You do not even have to worry if you did not pack any camping gear because there are specific companies that cater to this very need. It would also be nice if you could meet a friendly local who will take the time to bring you around because that is the best way to explore the wild, when you have someone to show you around.
