Daydream in paradise at Australia's Whitsunday Islands

With names like Daydream and Paradise Bay, it's not surprising that Australia's Whitsunday Islands are one of the most visited regions of the Land Down Under. When you take a medical job in Australia, you have 74 islands to explore, and whether you island hop or stick with one destination, you won't be disappointed.

Following a short venture from the mainland, you can spend your afternoon with your head in the clouds on Daydream Island. The spot's living reef is one of the region's can't-miss attractions, where the world's largest man-made coral reef holds more than 50 species of coral and 80 varieties of fish. If you're feeling adventurous, you can visit during feeding hours, when hungry sharks, stingrays and barramundi await their afternoon meals.

After a fun-filled day learning about the diverse ecosystems of Australia's surrounding ocean, you can venture to the Rejuvenation Spa, and spend hours indulging in a full-body massage or naturopathy, where you'll get the chance to feel at one with the Land Down Under and learn about natural healing methods that help you maintain a sense of peace and well-being.
