Brisbane may project a lazy, subtropical vibe, but Australia’s third largest city has a dynamic pulse just under the surface. While the river and beaches still attract their fair share of visitors, it’s the buzzing café culture, the world-class galleries, and the booming live music and theatre scene that are really drawing in the crowds. Just east of Brisbane is Moreton Bay which is filled with low-lying sandy isles, beaches and the lucky chance of passing parades of whales, turtles and dolphins. This is an impeccable outdoor city with a lot to offer its visitors.
