From white sandy beaches, the red ochre outback, snow capped Mt Kosciusko, and breathtaking Blue Mountains, New South Wales has something for everyone.
New South Wales’ coastline is fringed with fantastic coastal towns and villages where you can enjoy a deserted beach to yourself, watch kangaroos on the sand or dine in a five star restaurant by the sea.
The range of natural assets will astound. Catch site of whales along the coast or dive the brilliant coral reef on Lord Howe Island, hike the World Heritage-listed hinterland rainforests or take a boat along the dynamic systems of the Darling and the Murray rivers.
'Foodies' will never be hungry or thirsty in New South Wales with award-winning wine regions spread throughout the state and regional produce found in weekly farmers markets, gourmet restaurants or cosy cafes.
But it’s the towns and friendly hospitality that make New South Wales such a great place to travel. Here lies our history from gold rushes and bushrangers to Federation and walking on the moon. Discover Aboriginal heritage through hand stencils found in places such as Mutawintji or through dreamtime stories at Mungo National Park.
Festivals and events are celebrated state-wide, where you might see hundreds of sheep racing down the main street, or hundreds of Elvis’, or it might be a competition for the best beard or the best voice in Tamworth. Either way you can have an entertaining experience trying your luck in a fishing competition or simply lying back and enjoying Opera in the Vineyards.
New South Wales will continue to surprise with its diverse regions, attractions, events and towns - there is always something new to discover. There really is no place like it.
