Queensland is a state in the north eastern part of Australia. This
state has beautiful white sand beaches. The azure blue sea and its
waves are a true paradise for surfers. However, this is not the only
reason so many people go into the water. Off the coast the 2000
kilometre long Great Barrier Reef is located. This beautiful coral
reef is a true marvel and attracts many divers each year. Queensland
is the right spot for nature lovers in any case. The tropical climate
offers for a rich animal and plant life which can be enjoyed in
national parks. Among other attractions in this area are the
Australian Zoo, home of the crocodile hunter, Daintree National Park
and a few beautiful islands off the coast. Such as Magnetic Island,
Fraser Island and the Keppel Islands. Queensland has a tropical
climate. Temperatures are constantly warm on average. Daytime

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
