Australian honeymoon.

Me and the wife are planning our honeymoon, lookin at Australia. From checkin the internet there's so many places we could go. just curious if anyone here has any suggestions. We dont dive. but would like to be somewhere we will be able to swim out and snorkle or something and see some stuff. Also we are not very social so the more secluded the better. any help would be greatly appreciated. =)

 

MattGeezer....JohnO(?) where are you guys??? They are our resident Aussies on 3reef!

 

Yeah we've been looking for a little while now. I knew some folks on here were from the area so thought i'd get some insight from the locals. ;D


We've been married 2 and a half years now. but still havent gone on a honeymoon yet. (money issues) but now that we have the money. we want to make it worth while.

 

That's great and you probably could not pick a prettier place(from all I've seen in pics). Do you and the wife dive at all? I'd say for for the GBR area(wherever that is LOL) Snorkeling is even great if you don't dive!

 

yeah we dont dive. i want to take lessons. but not sure how i will do. just going to bottom of 10' pool causes the pressure in my head to be unbearable. not sure i could stand the strain. We are looking closely at Hamilton Island.

 

I wouild say that Far North Queensland is one of the best Honeymoon places very romantic and tropical.
You also have the reef and rain forests side by side .
Check out Cairns and port Douglas very nice places. Its were im from

 

also remember that right now we are in spring/early summer, Austrailia is in fall/early winter......


I think when you dive, the air you breath from the tank takes care of the pressure, since you won't be holding your breath...Divers correct me if I'm wrong????

 

Definetly know that feeling, we're at 2.5yrs married and first kid on the way, no $ cause my hobby takes it all up

 

Congrats on the youngin comming along!

Thanks for the info guys. we'll be sure to check out those places!

Glad you said something about the seasons, i didnt even think about it. LOL we've got a little while before we leave. will have to be sure to book it for when its really nice.

 

+1 I was there several years ago and it was absolutely gorgeous.
