SCENIC REGIONS SURROUNDING
Australia is packed with its own unique natural wonders, but nowhere has more wonderful attractions than the astonishing marine environments and scenic regions surrounding Thala Beach Nature Reserve.
Beneath you a shoal of silver striped fish arrow across the reef, their bright yellow tails propelling them effortlessly through the crystal clear water. Beneath them the Great Barrier Reef shimmers in the dappled sunlight.
This has got to be one of the world’s greatest natural underwater wonders – one you simply should not miss on your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Australia.
Stay at Thala Beach Nature Reserve and you’ll discover its land-based natural phenomena are barely less spectacular. You’ll be able to explore a rare littoral rainforest in the company of knowledgeable rangers. You’ll see ospreys, embark on butterfly walks and gaze deep into the universe though an unpolluted night sky. Before sleeping in a stylish hotel featuring rustic suites and bungalows standing amidst whispering eucalyptus trees.

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.
