Is there anyone more qualified to identify the most beautiful and unique places in the world than Sir David Attenborough? As one of the world’s most well-travelled wildlife experts, Attenborough has seen some of the most amazing landscapes in the world, but it seems he has a special place in his heart for Australia.

When Attenborough gave an acceptance speech for his 2017 Britain-Australia Society Award two years ago, the naturalist explained that children often ask his what his favourite place in the world is. Attenborough explained that North Queensland in Australia is his most beloved location.

Sir Attenborough explained than North Queensland has everything a naturalist could need, from amazing rainforests and the Great Barrier Reef to the excellent food and wine scene in the state.

In fact, Sir David Attenborough even claims that his favourite critter is Australian, tapping the leafy sea dragon – an interesting animal found off the coast of South Australia – as his favourite animal.

If you’re wondering what there is to do in North Queensland, check out the list below.
