Description:
Traveling from Sydney in the south to Cape Tribulation in the north, our AQ
Australian expedition includes sailing, scuba, surfing, exploration, trekking
and community service.
Australia is the sixth largest country in the world
and home to the Great Barrier Reef, the world's largest coral ecosystem.
Billabong is a high-action thrill ride. Climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge, surf
the waves at Manly Beach, circumnavigate the Whitsunday Islands aboard a sailing
yacht and join an intense scuba trip to the Great Barrier Reef, where you are
likely to encounter huge schools of jack, grouper and cod.
You'll never
forget whitewater rafting through some of the most inaccessible areas of the
rainforest or hiking through Cape Tribulation where the rainforest and the
reef meet at the water's edge. In the nature parks, you'll cuddle
a real koala, hand feed a kangaroo and pat a wombat! To see even more of the
Aussie wildlife, we'll catch a crocodile cruise down the Daintree River
and take a night safari through the rainforest which is reputed to be home
to the largest range of plants and animals on earth.
You and your team will
also earn community service hours through projects like assisting indigenous
landowners with habitat restoration and building community infrastructure.
The adventures in Australia are as varied as the 'down under' wildlife!
