Because Australia is south of the equator, the seasons Down Under are opposite to those in the Northern Hemisphere. Australia’s climate is mainly determined by three phenomena: the tropical low-pressure belt, the trade wind zone, and the subpolar westerly winds.
There are four different climate zones in Australia. The northern coastal regions are determined by the tropical climate. The climate on the west and east coast is predominantly subtropical. Moderate climate can be found on the south coast and Tasmania. The largest climate zone of Australia is the continental desert climate of Central Australia, which predominates in the Outback.
One of the most beautiful coastal roads in the world is located in the state of Victoria – the Great Ocean Road. On a length of almost 250 km, this breathtaking road stretches along the south coast of Australia between the surfer town Torquay and the small village Allansford. The coastal road leads past white sandy beaches, waterfalls, picturesque seaside resorts, wild cliffs, and rain forests.
