Holidays in Sapphire

Hey, we get it! You're sick to death of work and you need a holiday, yeah? Why not use your annual leave and suss out the striking beaches, rainforest, tablelands and desert landscapes of Queensland. Just base yourself in Sapphire and take it from there.

It lies 1,300 kilometres north of Canberra, the capital of Australia.

The calming sounds of nature are waiting for you at Fairbairn Dam. It lies just 40 kilometres away, so you don't have to be stuck on the road all day. Central Highlands Visitor Information Centre, 45 kilometres away, is one more recommended choice.

The nearby destinations of The Gemfields and Emerald are worth checking out. They're located 10 kilometres southeast and 45 kilometres east away, respectively. Jump in a car and see what's happening!

You won't find a better way to experience the surrounding area than on a stimulating adventure. Sign up for a bit of hiking or horse riding and get your blood pumping!

Shore fishing and beach combing are fabulous ways to slow down and soak up some sunshine.

Sure, we admit there's a charm to getting lost somewhere you've never been, but sometimes you just want to reach your destination on the first try. To avoid any hassles along the way, get involved in some guided nature walks and wildlife spotting tours.

Even the most adventurous travellers may get sweaty palms at the prospect of sky diving. Why not tackle your fears and give it a try?

Indulge in one of your favourite hobbies or have a go at something new on the waters around Queensland. There are a number of exciting watersports on offer, such as swimming and snorkeling.

Spend an afternoon indoors looking at the hidden treasures of the region's craft workshops.

Take a nice stroll and fill your lungs with fresh air at the surrounding area's farms.

There is no better way to understand a destination than to literally take a bite out of it! You're invited to discover the culture, history and personality of Queensland by sampling some of its best food and drink.

Looking for an introduction to the local food? We recommend tasting beef and bush tucker, two popular ingredients which go into lots of dishes here.

There's always a local plate or two that you need to cross of the list, and during your stay in Sapphire, salt and pepper squid is definitely one of them. Meat pie is another specialty that's not to be missed.

Do you still have a bit of room left after the main course? Then put in an order for peach melba, a delicious dessert.

They say life's not all beer and skittles, but there's certainly nothing wrong with relaxing with a cold one occasionally. When you're in this area, make sure it's XXXX Summer Bright Lager.

For something with a bit more kick, enjoy a couple of shots of Bundaberg Spiced Rum. Drink it as it is or ask your barkeeper for any mixer recommendations.

Not much is better than a drop of vino with dinner. Here, Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon and Riverina Chardonnay are what the wine lovers usually ask for.

It might be time to bid farewell, but it doesn't have to mean for good. Why not save your remaining Australian dollars for a return trip to this attractive region?

Ready to hit the skies? Pack your bag, set your alarm clock and make a plan to get to Emerald Airport (EMD). It's about 50 kilometres to the east.
