    In each of those locations? Well for Queensland, every place you go is amazing! But if I had to pick just one.... Hamilton Island! As for Tasmania - I went to Hobart last December and it was beautiful! I'm not a fan of Adelaide, so I can't recommend any place there I'm afraid. Haven't been to Melbourne in years, and have never been to Bali, Greece or Turkey. Sorry I can't be of more help! But have an amazing trip, wherever you end up!

    Greece- don't miss Santorini. Beautiful island. Turkey- well it's been a very long time since I have been but go to Istanbul, Gallipoli, Pamukkale, Cappadocia and the turquoise coast around Mamaris and Daylan. :)

    Yes I spent a month in Morocco with a girlfriend, a backpack and three pages of a guide book. It was an interesting place. The Sahara desert was awesome as so was the weed. Lol. I reckon Egypt & Israel are really fascinating places. Probably not so stage these days. OP, have you been to Croatia? Another amazing place but still really good value for Europe.

    Queensland - Fraser Island, Pelican Bank, Fitzroy Island all good for a visit. Mooloolaba is nice too. As for nudist beaches, Croatia is probably the best place with more than 30 official naturist campsites, tourist villages, hotels, apartments, beaches and numerous more unofficial naturist bathing places. Naturism is well accepted all along the Croatian Adriatic coast. j

    About the tips, thanks everyone :) I've travelled a lot, and lived and worked overseas including in dangerous post-conflict regions. I have no trouble making good travel plans but really wanted to hear the kinds of things a bunch of fun-loving, passionate people have enjoyed. I agree I can never get excited about Adelaide! Hopefully someone will point me to something unexpected there. I really appreciate the recommendations!

    Hayman Island is amazing. Great staff, very relaxing, fantastic food and an iconic pool. I think it is currently being renovated though and due to reopen mid year.

    A slow drive down the Great Ocean Road. Some famous sights, great places to eat and I think there may even be a couple of nudist beaches at the beginning of it too (but don't quote me on that).

    Melbourne- Victoria Markets. Tassie- visit in February, the cherries & strawberries are amazing. Queensland- The Daintree, were you can be in Rainforest & 4 steps you are on the beach. For an amazing place overseas, an African Game Park. Its everything and more of what you expect.

    The Gold Coast is beautiful. Or Byron is only 45 mins South of. Or Port Douglas in Cairns, QLD. Especially snorkelling in the Great Barrier Reef x - Posted from rhpmobile

    I think you've just inspired me! Diving and snorkelling on the Reef is one if my favourite things to do in Oz and it's been a few years. I think fitting in a dive trip is a must! Thanks for the reminder :) - Posted from rhpmobile

    Quoting 'british_lothario' hey I'm not trying to promote tourism but have you thought about uk ??hire a car and drive down to the south of spain stunning drive with great viewsthe people of europe are friendly apart from the french of course..my next trip is to the great island of iceland many wonders that such a small country holds I've been to the UK, and seen quite a bit of Spain, including driving from Seville into San Sebastian. Well, I didn't drive. I tried, but I ran into garbage bins leaving the hire car yard. Hubby thought it best he take over from there. Spain is a fave country in Europe, in particular Barcelona, Seville and Granada. La alhambra really stirred something in me. I still can't put a finger on it. I never saw Madrid but people rave about it. Now I'm tempted to go back there B_L :) I'm drawn to Greece because I mostly want to sleep, swim, sunbake and hang out with locals. Plus I've only been to Athens and Corfu, so I've only had limited experience there. I'd love to go to Iceland too! And Antarctica. Everywhere really :)
