Keep the reunions coming! It's been two years and finally, Australia is welcoming fully-vaccinated overseas visitors and residents returning from abroad who present a negative COVID-19 test result on 21 February.

Visitors must be vaccinated in order to enter Australia, but states can enact their own travel restrictions - for example Western Australia will require quarantine measures before entry. But other states may not have mandatory requirements to restrict tourist access so it doesn't hurt to book your next trip now if you're looking for adventure or wanting a reunion with friends on the Sunshine Coast.
