[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What month are you going? Makes a huge difference. Also, are you comfortable renting a car and driving several hours? And open to flying somewhere?

Skip the Gold Coast. Very built up and feels like Florida. If you want to do something within a two hour drive, head to Noosa. You can also visit k’gari (nee Fraser Island) from there.

Depending on season, budget, etc., Heron Island, Port Douglas and/or Whitsundays would be my top picks.

School holidays will greatly impact prices so try to avoid.

Australia Zoo is a day trip from Brisbane. [/quote]

Around end of June, to mid July. But could go in mid June if it makes a difference.
I wouldn't rent a car. I'd cycle if that were feasible.
I'd fly if it's worth going to.

If you want outdoorsy activity but don’t need beach swimming weather (too cold for beach), you could take the bus to Noosa and then cycle around there. And kayak and walk. There’s a bus tour to k’gari from Noosa.

Port Douglas is better with car but you could book tours. Good area for snorkeling in winter.

Or you could fly to Sydney and/or Uluru, depending on interest. You don’t necessarily need a car at Uluru but you won’t find easier driving than that. [/quote]
