The Waves

Australia is popular for its high waves that are just perfect for surfing, but sometimes it could get too high, swelling up to 40 feet, even having a wave on top of another. And if you’re a surfer coming across these waves, it would be like a big wall made of water falling on you and dragging you far and deep -where the other underwater dangers may lie, like sharks perhaps. Good luck!

Taipan Snake

This probably won’t surprise you, or anyone else, but the most venomous snake in the world is indigenous to Australia and lives in the desert. On the bright side, however, it tends to slither away from humans rather than fight them. Only a handful of people have been bitten by this snake. Yes, they survived. All the same, even with good travel insurance, you wouldn’t want to test the snake’s highly toxic venom.
