About AustraliaWeb
What is AustraliaWeb?
We’re a practical travel and amenities guide for Australia. Find toilets (including accessible and adult change), public showers, parents’ rooms, and trip ideas — with an accessibility‑first approach.
Is AustraliaWeb free to use?
Yes. Most site features are free to browse. Some advanced features may be added over time, but the essentials (finding facilities and planning trips) are free.
Do you have a mobile app?
Yes — try the AussieLoo app for quick filters (Accessible Toilets, Adult Change, Showers, Parents’ Rooms) and “Near Me”.
Toilet Finder & facilities
How do I find accessible toilets near me?
Open Near Me or the AussieLoo app, then enable the Accessible Toilets filter. You can also filter for Adult Change, Showers, or 24/7.
What do the facility icons mean?
See Access symbols explained for icons like accessible toilets, hoists, parents’ rooms, and showers.
Do you verify opening hours and accessibility?
We aim to keep details current, but facilities change. Always check local signage and council pages, especially for after‑hours access.
Where can I find public showers?
Browse the Public Showers hub — common on beach foreshores and in some parks and recreation centres.
Do you list adult change facilities (Changing Places)?
Yes. Start with Changing Places overview and filter for Adult Change in the app.
Trips & road planning
Where should I stop on a long drive?
Plan breaks every 2 hours. Use Routes A–Z and the Near Me map to line up towns with good facilities. See Road Safety & Rest Breaks for tips.
Can I free camp or sleep at rest areas?
Rules vary. See Free Camping & Rest Areas for state‑by‑state guidance. Always obey local signage.
What’s the best route for coastal views?
Start with Coastal Drives (e.g., Great Ocean Road, Grand Pacific Drive, Coral Coast).
Accessibility
How do I find adult change facilities on a trip?
Use the app filter for Adult Change and check our Adult change travel tips guide.
Do national parks have accessible amenities?
Many do, particularly popular parks. See the National Parks hub and each park page for access notes.
