The distance between the east coast and west coast of Australia is 2,500 mi.

Australia is an island country that is also a continent on its own, and that makes it unique. It is one of the biggest countries in the world, and no wonder that it is a very long and wide country.

In a straight line, Australia's east coast is 2,500 mi away from the west coast of the country.

The biggest and most influential city in the east coast is Brisbane, while on the west coast it is Perth that has that role.
