An incredible vacation is at all times wanted, particularly if it includes some incredible sights, adventures, clubs and gloomy nights. And now, during your college days, is the perfect time to experience all of that. And if you want to be sure you have the best time, head to the amazing Land Down Under. Here are the best places you should consider visiting.
Melbourne
Melbourne is known as the most livable city in the world. In Melbourne, you will have the opportunity to swim with sharks and dolphins and enjoy lively music and playful wildlife – from koalas to fairy penguins. Also, it’s home to numerous charming gardens and parks, a fantastic train station, and vibrant street art everywhere you look. Plus, throughout the city, you will find great restaurants and cafes, in addition to bars and boutiques hidden behind rickety old staircases and inconspicuous doors. Pretty interesting if you ask me.
Sydney
Sydney is a city you should not miss when visiting Australia. Firstly, Sydney is home to some of the best beaches in the world, enriched by white sand and clear water. Also, there are many really charming parks and other hangout places where you can chill with friends and take incredible Instagram photos, like Darling Harbour, Opera House, Harbor Bridge, etc. There’s plenty to do here, from surf lessons through sightseeing and hiking to high-end cruises. For art lovers, there are numerous museums and art galleries, in addition to 23 days’Clear‘ A festival that combines art, technology, music and light by turning Sydney’s most charming buildings into amazing canvases of light projection. Combine all this super cheap and convenient student accommodation near Sydney and you have your dream trip.
Brisbane
As the capital of Queensland, Brisbane is among the most glamorous cities for young people in Australia. For art lovers, there’s the Modern Art Gallery which is the most popular art gallery in the entire country. Plus, Brisbane has probably the most vibrant city life so you will not be bored there, and Brisbane is unbelievably rich in wildlife and nature. Additionally, Brisbane has been named one of the top 5 music hotspots by Billboard, thanks to its unbeaten music scene. And if you like staying up late, there are tons of pubs, bars, clubs and shops everywhere you look.
Cairns
The city also has a crazy nightlife, particularly if you’re a backpacker or traveling on a budget. On every corner you can find cheap beer and grub. Or, you can join a party tour and go to all the popular nightspots, and regret your drunken decision the next morning while splashing on the Great Barrier Reef.
Perth
Perth was once a small, remote, sleepy town and then said – TRUST ME, not anymore. Now, it’s a bustling metropolis on the west coast of Australia, perfect for budget travelers and backpackers as there are numerous backpacker clubs, bars and hostels. Also, the sunset on the beach is a sight to behold.
Byron Bay
Oh did I tell you Sydney beaches are great? Well… they weren’t the great Byron Bay. A surf town with a cool, hippie vibe, this is maybe Australia’s party mecca. You can enjoy live music at the numerous beach bars, then head to a club like Cheeky Monkey and dance. You will have the time of your life but at the same time, you’ll come home to a whole new spiritual level.
In conclusion I would say that wherever you go in Australia you’ll have an awesome time, but in these cities, you’ll have an awesome time.
