What to Pack
Casual wear does just fine for most places in Australia. So keep the clothes informal unless on a business trip. In summer, from October to April, carry lightweight clothes; always carry a hat in Australia, as the sun and UV radiation can get very intense. For the coast, an umbrella or raincoat is a sensible item to carry along; and for inland and mountainous regions, you’ll need a lightweight coat.
Winter months require heavier warm clothes and inland areas can get really cold.
Beachwear is for the beaches, so carry your swimming togs along.

Travel Documents
With the exception of New Zealanders, all foreign nationals need visas to enter Australia. All visas have to be applied for and obtained before entering the country. The duration of the tourist visa depends on how long you intend to stay. There are other types of visas like the student visa and a business visa. Apply in good time and with all required documents and visa should be granted.
