Flinders Street Station
Flinders Street Station is the hub of Melbourne’s suburban rail network and for many years has been Melbourne’s major landmark. The clocks on the corner of this ornate station have been the favourite meeting place for generations of Melburnians.
V/line trains to Bairnsdale and the Latrobe Valley depart from here, but all other V/line rail services depart from Southern Cross Station.
Flying High Bird Sanctuary
This 5000 square metre aviary at Apple Tree Creek, north of Childers, allows you to walk among a variety of Australian parrots and finches.
Foaming Fury white water rafting trips
Cairns is a good base for rafting on nearby rivers.
Foaming Fury run half-day white water rafting trips on the Barron River (grade 3 rapids), half-day tubing on the Mulgrave River and full day rafting trips on the Russell River (grade 3–4 rapids). All Foaming Fury rafting trips include transfers from Cairns.
Food Wine Friends
Food Wine Friends is a great spot for coffee, cake and a light meal.
Foodworks Magnetic Island
There are a couple of small supermarkets on Magnetic Island including a Foodworks at Nelly Bay.
Things are more expensive on Magnetic Island so you’ll save money if you stock up on a few things at the Coles or Woolworths in Townsville before getting the ferry to the island.
Fort Queenscliff
This coastal fortress was constructed in 1882 as part of an elaborate defence network around the Port Phillip Bay heads. Guided tours of the facility take around an hour and allow you to see the fort’s lighthouse and military instalments.
Fort Scratchley
Built in the 1880s, this former defence post now contains a military and maritime museum. The fort offers good views of both the harbour and city centre. There is an extensive system of tunnels linking the complex.
Fremantle Markets
This old market hall has been around since 1897 and is now home to one of Fremantle’s most popular attractions with over 150 stalls ranging from fruit and veggies to art and craft.
Fremantle Prison
The Fremantle Prison was built with convict labour in the 19th century and was operated as a prison until as recently as 1991. It has now been opened to the public and has frequent guided tours.

Geikie Gorge National Park
Geikie Gorge National Park is around 17km north of Fitzroy Crossing and is worth a detour if you’re driving between Darwin and Broome, although it’s otherwise a bit difficult to get to if you’re travelling by coach.
The best way to explore the gorge is to take one of the cruises on the river, although there are also some good walks along the gorge and elsewhere in the national park. The gorge features some nice picnic and barbecue sites and is home to plenty of freshwater crocodiles.
