It depends on which list of the 7 Wonders you are referring to. None of the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World, which is considered the classic list, are located in Australia of course. Those were all located in Greece, Egypt, Turkey and what is now modern day Iraq. In 2007, a new list of 7 Wonders was created, but none of those fall in Australia either.

There is one location in Australia that has managed to make a list of "wonders" however. In 1997, CNN created a list of wonders which recognized some of the most naturally beautiful places on Earth. This list of the "7 Natural Wonders" included places like Mt. Everest and the Grand Canyon. The Great Barrier Reef, which is located along Australia's northeast coast, made the list due to its massive size (it covers more than 1240 miles) and the incredible diversity of marine life that lives there.
