More than 4 bodies of water surround Australia.

  • West of Australia is the Indian Ocean and to the east is the Pacific Ocean.
  • South of Tasmania and Australia's southern coastline is the Southern Ocean.
  • North of Australia are the Timor and Arafuraseas
  • To the southeast, between Australia and New Zealand, is the Tasman Sea
  • To the northeast is the Coral Sea.

Not coming under the heading of either "seas" or "oceans" are also the Gulf Of Carpentaria in the north and the Great Australian Bight, which is essentially a wide, open bay which is part of the Southern Ocean.

Between the mainland and Tasmania is Bass Strait while between Cape York in Queensland and Papua New Guinea to the north is Torres Strait.
