Welcome to Queensland - Capital City: Brisbane

Today's Forecast

Queensland, also known as the "sunshine state", is home of the Great Barrier Reef - the world's largest complex of coral reefs and islands. It is also one of Australia's most popular tourist destinations - especially the Gold Coast with its beautiful beaches, unbeatable diving, major theme parks and great party atmosphere. But there is so much more to Queensland than theme parks and golden beaches. Travel up north and walk in spectacular rainforests or travel inland for amazing sights such as limestone caves, dinosaur footprints and Aboriginal rock art.

Brisbane is situated on the banks of the Brisbane River between Moreton Bay and the Great Dividing Range.
