Exercise normal precautions when travelling to Australia.
Australia is a very safe country with well-developed tourism infrastructure and low crime rates. The primary risks are natural: extreme heat in the outback, bushfires (especially in summer), dangerous marine life (box jellyfish, sharks, crocodiles in the north), and powerful surf and rip currents. The Great Barrier Reef, Sydney, Melbourne, the Outback, and Tasmania are world-class destinations. Distances are vast and outback travel requires thorough preparation. Australia's unique wildlife includes many venomous species. Medical facilities are excellent in cities; remote areas rely on the Royal Flying Doctor Service.
