Continent: Australasia
Comprised of Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea and the islands of the Pacific, the continent of Australasia is located in the southern hemisphere and flanked by the Indian Ocean to the west, the Pacific Ocean to the east and the Southern Ocean to the south. Being around twenty four hours’ flight from the UK, the continent has long since been considered a ‘once in a lifetime’ destination but in recent years has become more and more accessible and is now on the map for families, students, and retirees alike.
Whether you can spare a few weeks or even a few months, there is no shortage of attractions to capture your interest with stunning and varied scenery, an interesting history, fascinating culture and activities of every kind.
