Welcome to our Queensland!
Queensland has so much to offer kiwis looking for a holiday destination.

New Zealand has long had a love affair with the Gold Coast and the region is looking better today than ever. Long white sandy beaches, an extensive range of accommodation options to choose from, great shops, theme parks, attractions, golf courses, restaurants, the enchanting Hinterland region, the list could go on and on.

Brisbane has come into its own as a holiday destination rather than a stopover for people on the way to the coast and it has a huge amount to offer those wanting a quick break.

Further north the Sunshine Coast beckons those seeking a quieter pace and if you are there with a rental car you can have a huge amount of fun exploring this pristine area.

The Mackay Region with its unspoilt beaches and National Parks and Airlie Beach and the surrounding beautiful islands, are both great bases to visit the Great Barrier Reef from.

Townsville, Australia’s largest tropical city, is the perfect base for those wanting to explore nearby tropical islands like the magic Magnetic Island. Tropical North Queensland is certainly growing in popularity for kiwis. Cairns and Port Douglas in particular are becoming favourites for those looking for a true Queensland holiday.

Queensland really does live up to its promise of ‘beautiful one day, perfect the next’ and with so much to see and do, you will want to return again and again!
