Travelstride Take
Get the tropical experience of Australia with this Great Barrier Reef getaway. The beach town life in Australia is unrivaled and you'll have the perfect introduction to it here. 4 days still packs in a lot of activity, so don't go prepared for much relaxation (unless you count the hours spent snorkeling in beautiful blue waters). - Stride Editor
