Introducing the OZ Experience There are many ways to travel OZ, but here's one that will take you nearly everywhere but won't teach you the meaning of life! Nundle, NSW The first overnight stop and a chance to engage in a 'Sheep Experience'. Bingara, NSW Horse riding in the Aussie bush and an introduction to belly skiing. Byron Bay, NSW Go Hard, Go Often or Go Home! is the only advice you'll need for your stay in Byron. Surfer's Paradise, QLD Some describe it as the party capital of Australia. They even have a "Club Crawl". Noosa, QLD Noosa is a jumping off point for Fraser Island, the world's largest sand dune island. Bargara, QLD Many divers come here to dive Lady Elliot Island because of the water's clarity. Dingo, QLD Overnighting in a cattle station and gunshot fashion. Airlie Beach, QLD Airlie Beach has no beach but it has got the Whitsunday Islands to cruise around under sail. Magnetic Island, QLD With over twenty-five sandy bays, Magnetic Island is a pretty OK suburb of Townsville. Mission Beach, QLD Arguably there is no better place in Australia to jump out of an aeroplane than Mission Beach. Cairns, QLD Rafting on the Tully River and diving the Great Barrier Reef. What more could you want? Alice Springs, NT The "Priscilla" route from Cairns to Alice takes three days through the middle of frikkin' nowhere.

Quorn, SA Marking the beginning of the Flinders Ranges, Quorn offers some great hiking oppourtunities.
