23.01.2022 Before the postpone the to 2022 there were a number of planned tours advertised since COVID-19 these have been dismantled and are being reorganised. As soon as the tours have become re-organised they will be shown. THE GREAT BARRIER REEF The Great Barrier Reef is one of the seven wonders of the natural world, and pulling away from it, and viewing it from a greater distance, you can understand why. It is larger than the Great Wall of China and the only living thing on earth... visible from space. The marine park stretches over 3000km (1800 miles) almost parallel to the Queensland coast, from near the coastal town of Bundaberg, up past the northern tip of Cape York. The reef, between 15 kilometres and 150 kilometres off shore and around 65 Km wide in some parts, is a gathering of brilliant, vivid coral providing divers with the most spectacular underwater experience imaginable. A closer encounter with the Great Barrier Reef’s impressive coral gardens reveals many astounding underwater attractions including the world’s largest collection of corals (in fact, more than 400 different kinds of coral), coral sponges, molluscs, rays, dolphins, over 1500 species of tropical fish, more than 200 types of birds, around 20 types of reptiles including sea turtles and giant clams over 120 years old.

18.01.2022 CARRICK HILL welcomes you during the 19th WORLD ROSE CONVENTION Oct-Nov 2022 Carrick Hill is a grand historic home generously bequeathed to the State of South Australia. The home with its original contents is almost completely intact and its grounds undiminished. The home is surrounded by beautiful park-like lawns, ancient trees and rose gardens set on 40 hectares of land, which includes 26 hectares of native bushland. The magnificent house displays many historical items an...d internationally significant works of art. Set on a hillside overlooking Adelaide it remains a romantic and dramatic place evoking the memories of its creators, Sir Edward and Lady Ursula Hayward. Although the State Government provides financial assistant to ensure the property continues to be a wonderful venue for the public to enjoy, much of the work done to maintain both the house and the gardens is carried out by 100 enthusiastic volunteers.

15.01.2022 Before the postponement due to COVID-19 there were a number of planned tours advertised but these must be re-confirmed. As soon as the tours are organised they will be publicised. In December, 2021 the full program will be available and Registration will open. The Twelve Apostles Created by constant erosion of the limestone cliffs of the mainland beginning 1020 million years ago, the stormy Southern Ocean and blasting winds gradually eroded the softer limestone, forming caves in the cliffs. The caves eventually became arches and when they collapsed rock stacks up to 45 metres high were left isolated from the shore. View the 12 Apostles at sunrise and sunset as they change colour from dark and foreboding in shadow to brilliant sandy yellow under a full sun.
