SYDNEY

Hey there!! Today I'm gonna show you, the place of Australia where i had more fun! It is a very touristic city, and it is called Sydney.

Sydney, is one of the most populated citys in Australia. It is the capital of the state of New South Wales. It is located at the southeast of Australia. Sydney is a very rich city, furthermore it's rated as the best place to live in the world. Sydney is a ver touristic city, because it has too many diffrent things too see and do.

The  most popular builing of Australia, it's located in Sydney, and it's called Sidney Opera House. It was designed by a Danish architect caleed Jorn Utzon, and it first opened on 20 Octobe 1973 after Jorn Utzon was selectioned as the winner of an International design competition.  The sydney Opera House was opened by Elisabeth II, who was the Queen of Australia. The event was televised and it included Beethoven's music and fireworks.

But we haven't arrived yet to the best part: Bondi Beach. Is one of the most popular Beaches in Australia. It is popular for its waves, and cristaline water. The most part of the surfers of the whole world, have gone at least one time to bondi beach, includeing myself, basically because it has some of the best waves conditions ever.
Bondi Beach is an exposed beach break that can work any time of the year. The best wind dirction to create waves in this beach, is from the south. The beach breaks off are lefts or rights. You should be aware of sharks, rips, rocks and sharks.

CAIRNS

Hey!!
Today I'm going to show you a city located in Queensland, at the northeast of Australia. It has a population of 150,920 people. It is popular for its tropical weather, the animals of the zone, but the biggest attraction, is the coral reef barier, which is at less than an hour far by boat.

Cairns is one of the most popular destinations in Australia. The city it's not very pretty, but it has its own airport, a lot of hotels ubicated in differents points of the city, and lots of shops, like Victoria's secret, which is my favourite one;). This city has very different kinds of things, but it hasn't got a beach where people can swim, because of gellyfish and crocodiles. This is a huge problem in summer, so they put nets in a delimited space of the beach, so the people can not be attacked by dangerous animals.

If you are someone who loves diving in the sea, this is the perfect place for you, because there are a lot of companies, who take you by boat, to the most awsome coral reef barier in the whole world. The trip is not very expensive and it takes all day long: first you dive in one part of the reef, then you have lunch , which is cooked in the same boat. After that, you can rest for a while, while you are having a sunbathe at the top of the boat. Finally you visit another part of the reef, and you go back to the port.
Till next week;)

WHITSUNDAY ISLANDS

Hey guys;)

Today I'm going to show you the place where the third most beautiful beach of the world is located. 
It's a group of islands situated at the north east of Australia island, in the region of Queensland.. There are only three inhabited islands, and I went to the most beautiful one: Hamilton Island.

The main advantage is that is next to the coral reef, so you can go diving and enjoy the reef, whenever you want to. The island has its own airport, which is pretty small. It has many different hotels, and some apartments. There is a free bus, which gets you to anywhere in the island, and connects the diferent hotels. There island is full of swimming pools, restaurants, and shops, but there is a small zoo, where you can take photos of yourself holding a cute koala. And if it's a rainy day, you can go to the bowling ally, which is located next to the airport, but the most famous thing about that island, are the boats which get you to the most beatiful beaches: The Whiteheaven, and Hill Inlet. Those beaches have white sand, formed by the wear coral, and turquoise waters.

The set of islands is formed by seven islands:
Hamilton island, which has a population of 1347 people, and an area of 5 Km2.
Hayman island, which is uninhabited, and it is pretty small.
Daydream island, which is popular for its reef, and it is uninhabited.
Long island, is a long shaped island whith an area of 13 Km2.
Whiteheaven island, where whiteheaven beach is located.
Lindeman island, created by a volcano in the middle of the sea.
Dent island, it's next to Hamilton island, and it is famous for its huge golg club.

NOOSA HEADS

Hey guys!
Today I'm going to show you my favourite place in Australia: Noosa Heads.
Noosa Head is one of the major centres of Noosa region, on the Sunshine coast, Queensland, Austrlia.
Noosa Heads is one of the best places because you can do all sorts of things: Go shopping, visit the zoo, go swimming... but the best thing you can do in noosa heads is surfing.Boiling Pot on the North coast is an exposed point break that has inconsisten surf, works best in offshore winds from the south. Waves just as likely from local windswells as from distant groundswells, and the best swell direction is from the northeast. The beach is often crowded and you have to beware of sharks, rocs and jellyfish.
