Australia is a very large country. It is the only one that is a country and a continent all on its own. This mammoth land is filled with many natural beauties and wonders. Among its most noteworthy natural beauties is the Great Barrier Reef and the Great Outback. Nothing in Australia is known for being small. These two natural wonders are no different. The barrier reef is over two thousand three hundred kilometers in size making it the largest reef formation in the world you can opt to charter boats. Similarly the Great Outback is no small area.
This area is two and a half million square miles and it is mostly unpopulated except for some vast farms. Australia is also known for some unique animals that are found nowhere else in the world. The Kangaroo and the Koala bear are two such beautiful animals that are unique to the Australian echo system and cannot be found in the wild anywhere else. Australia also boasts of other endemic wildlife such as insects, birds and fish.
Some of these animals are protected by the government there any reports of hunting or fishing is strictly prohibited. However some animals are allowed to be captured in an attempt to control their species and also to encourage tourism. This form of hunting for sport is permitted under a special permit and it is strictly limited to several types of animals only. Therefore you should be careful not to accidently or intentionally hunt and kill anything you are not allowed to.
To help with the tourism, tour groups or companies, take parties out hunting to the outback or to catch fish off the Great Barrier Reef. Out on the reef too there are only certain types of edible fish that people are allowed to catch as part of a reef fishing activity. This also gives you a chance to explore the region and its beauty. If you are at the reef one great activity you can try out is snorkeling or scuba diving to the reef. This way you can truly enjoy the beauty of the life under the weaves. One of the famous reef fish you might be able to see are the clown fish, or in other words Nemo from the Finding Nemo movie.
If you are going on any such excursion make sure you take a local guide or expert as Australia is infamous for being a harsh and unforgiving area. Out at sea or out to the Outback, these are vast areas and getting yourself lost or into trouble is something that can easily happen. Therefore travel smart so that you can enjoy your adventure without making it your last.
