The top 10 casinos for you

Australia is not only one of the biggest holiday destinations but is also renowned for being one of the biggest casino hubs. Blessed with natural wonders and warm weather, travelers are making Australia increasingly popular each year. When the luxurious West Point Hotel opened up its doors to their legal casino on the 10th of February 1973, tourists started labeling Australia as one of the best countries in the world. Australia was now not only ideal for nature-seekers, sunbathers but also gamblers across the globe.

Legalizing casinos became a perfect fit in Australia as Aussies are famous for being very competitive. Gambling on casinos became another fun hobby for locals and explorers with the glitz and the glamour of the newly opened casino.

In the mid 90’s century, Australia only had its one casino hotel available for the adventurous gamblers but now, well, there are multiple options to choose from! Which casino would one excited gambler begin to play on? It can be hard to pick but don’t worry we are here to help you.
