    Australia

    I'm going to Adelaide and Melbourne in May for work and looking for a few things to do.

    Currently planning on doing an offshore fishing trip and going to Kangaroo Island while in Adelaide. Any charter recommendations?

    What are some must do/see things in the area?

    I'm also going back around September/October if that changes anything.

            We plan to stay 4 days in Adelaide. I was advised on Tripadvisor the following activities:

            0.5 day wine tasting tour

            0.5 day animal park (Cleland or Gorge) for Koalas

            0.5 day in Glenelg

            2 days to wander and enjoy the museums/galleries/other tourist attractions in Adelaide (we will firm this up later on)


            4 days in Melbourne:

            1 day Phillip Island (1 afternoon-overnight-1 morning)

            2 days to wander and enjoy the museums/galleries/other tourist attractions is Ho-Ho bus in Melbourne (we will firm this up later on)

            0.5 day dolphin cruise

            4 days in Sydney

            2 days to wander and enjoy the museums/galleries/other tourist attractions in Sydney (we will firm this up later on)

            Sydney Harbour dinner cruise (evening)
            We've just applied for Australian visa for US citizens, hope it'll be ok

            Thank you, this is great info!! I'm going to look into a few of these.

                    I spent a good bit of time on the Gold Coast (east coast) about a decade ago. Worth spending some time in Sydney, and even some of the suburbs. Great barrier reef, Whitsundays, Rainbow Beach, were all amazing. The Tooheys beer is very good. And yes the women are fun. They seem to have a lot more confidence than American women, and they like TX accents.

                      Do you happen to be a submariner? Navy? My submarine landed on the opposite side in Brisbane and Ill say this was my experience as well. I had a great time. Was my first Westpac.

                          Absolutely loved Melbourne.

                          The must while you are there is footy. Go see a game, have a beer and a meat pie.
                          Trust me on this.
