Sunsets and sunrises of Australia

A couple of months ago I moved into my apartment and I have the most amazing sunsets outside of my window. This reminded me of all the beautiful sunsets and sunrises I saw in Australia and how I still miss it everyday. After looking back at them I thought it would be a nice idea to show you all the amazing sunsets and sunrises I saw there back in 2014. I tried to make a selection but it was difficult because they are all so beautiful! haha.

I think Australia is a beautiful country with a lot of diversities. You have big cities like Sydney, Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane but when you go into land you will be in the outback where it will take hours to get to a supermarket.

So I would say enjoy these beautiful sunsets and sunrises pictures I took.

This picture was my first sunset in Australia and it was only the beginning. I saw this when I was at surf camp.

Busselton, Western Australia

sunsets and sunrises

Busselton is a small town located in south-west Australia and has the longest wooden jetty (pier) of the southern hemisphere. At the end of the jetty there is an underwater observatory and an interpretive centre.
You can walk to the end or use the tourist train.
I really wanted to visit the underwater observatory but because it was really windy that day the observatory was closed.

Below you can see the sunset photos I took along the coast of Busselton.

Alice Springs/Uluru

When I did my tour from Darwin to Adelaide we stopped at Uluru and saw two sunrises. So we took a lot of pictures ;). I will try to post about this soon. I think it’s a must do when you are in Australia.

Byron Bay

sunset

When you are in Byron Bay you have to walk to the lighthouse and see the sunset there. But don’t forget a flashlight because walking back down in complete darkness is no fun! Believe me, haha!

Noosa

Besides that Noosa will always hold a special place in my heart is also has the most beautiful sunsets.
Here are a couple of pictures I took at the lookout and when I did the sunset cruise with Lena.

Palm Beach

Palm Beach is just a bite North from Sydney. They also film the soap opera Home and Away here.
This is the only sunset picture I have of the sunset of Palm Beach because after that my phone crashed and I lost a lot of pictures. But you can imagine how beautiful this would have been?!

Blue Mountains

This picture is taken at the Blue Mountains. Again I had amazing sunset pictures of the Blue Mountains but that was before my phone crashed. I’m still so sad about this.

Whitsundays Islands

The first pictures is a sunset at the Whitsundays Islands. The bottom ones are sunrises from the boat somewhere between the Whitsundays Islands. I won’t say anything and just let you enjoy these sunsets and sunrises. It was unreal.

Sorry about the sunsets and sunrises overload, haha, but I hope you liked them!

    Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I love a good lighthouse and you sure took a great one. BTW~ One can never have too many sunrise or sunset experiences.

    Such a beautiful range of different sunsets, all unique in their own way. I’m always amazed by them, never gets boring. In the Philippines there were some insane sunsets even with storm clouds in the middle, crazy!

    I must agree! Australia does have some of the best sunrises and sunsets because of our dramatic scenery. I think it would be hard to beat.

    Beautiful post! I should save this just for those times I need some de-stressing, these photos are so soothing. I’ve not yet made it to Australia, but husband’s company does have an office there. We really need to pursue a business/vacation trip!

    You really did a great job capturing all these towns in Australia though these sunset pictures. Too bad your phone died for the Palm Beach sunset photos but the one you took is still alright. I think the best sunset we’ve seen was on Prince Edward Island in Canada but it’s hard to say that one sunset is better than another. That is our favourite one recently because we enjoyed walking on the sandy beach.

      Thank you. My phone didn’t die but crashed. I’m still very sad about that.
      I have been to PEI but didn’t see a sunset unfortunately. And very true every sunset is different and can’t really compare.

      Viel het jou ook op dat het leek dat je de wolken kon aanraken?
