Insider tips

  • ★Book reef trips early in the day to avoid afternoon crowds and maximise visibility underwater
  • ★Bring reef-safe sunscreen; standard SPF can damage coral ecosystems
  • ★The Great Ocean Road is best driven leisurely—stop at viewpoints like the Twelve Apostles rather than rushing the route
  • ★Uluru sunset is iconic but sunrise is quieter; consider both if your schedule allows
