Transport
Distances are huge. Flying (Qantas, Virgin, Jetstar) is often the only practical way. Renting a campervan is a classic way to see the coast. Trains are scenic but slow and expensive.
Wildlife
Kangaroos and wallabies are everywhere in the countryside. Koalas are harder to spot (look up in gum trees). Quokkas on Rottnest Island are the happiest animals on earth. Watch out for snakes and spiders, but don't panic—encounters are rare.
FAQ
Is it dangerous?
The wildlife is dangerous, but attacks are rare. The sun is the real killer—wear high SPF sunscreen always.
Coffee?
Australians are coffee snobs. The 'Flat White' was invented here (or in NZ, depending on who you ask). Starbucks is hard to find for a reason.
Internet?
Generally good in cities, but can be non-existent in the Outback. Get a Telstra SIM for best coverage.
