The top end of the country is tropical and monsoons and typhoons are not uncommon in some areas. Western Australia is a broad plateau with only a few areas of fertile land and desert regions some of which run right up to the sea. Unique to Australia, of course are our opposite seasons. While everyone else is freezing at Christmas, we re usually by the pool or on the beach, which mean s that our Summers see a massive influx of tourists, desperate for a bit of sun. Tasmanian Tigers Note the name.
Snakes Only eat tourists, apparently.
They re not exactly incey wincey ones over here Parrots Amazingly bright colours. National parks range from lush, green tropical rainforests to dry empty outback. You can also see baron coastal dune territory and craggy Mountain regions. Most overseas visitors take tours through these regions but if you are brave enough to venture out on your own remember to be prepared for the natural elements. Many of out national parks have a World Heritage listing so please leave the parks exactly the way you found them.
