Best Answer

There is no single body of water into which the rivers flow. Many of the rivers of Australia form part of an inland river system known as the Murray-Darling river system. The Darling is a tributary of the Murray, and the Murray flows into the Southern Ocean (via Lake Alexandrina on the southern coast). Many of the rivers of Queensland's Gulf country flow into a system which feeds Lake Eyre, a huge salt lake in South Australia which fills only once every ten years, at most. There are also many rivers flowing down from the Great Dividing Range which extends along Australia's entire eastern coast. These rivers flow into either the Coral Sea (part of the Pacific Ocean) or the Tasman Sea.
