Australia offers a diverse array of experiences for honeymooners. Romantic getaways especially designed for newlyweds are available at island resorts and seaside locations. Or you can choose to be more adventurous and visit the Australian outback, learn the aboriginal culture or visit large cities.

At the Long Island Resort, you can have a romantic portrait photograph taken and enjoy a scenic flight over the Whitsundays Islands. You can even try your hand at the exciting sport of coconut tossing! Jet skiing, water skiing, parasailing, and sailing in a glass bottom boat are available at extra cost.

If you would like to catch a glimpse of the humpback whales, consider an August to October visit to the Kingfisher Bay Resort of Fraser Island, which is located at the start of the Great Barrier Reef amidst ancient rainforests, huge sand dunes and an abundance of wildlife. Morning cruises depart the resort daily.

At the Daydream Island Resort and Spa you can take a helicopter flight to Whitehaven Beach and munch on a gourmet lunch. Visitors rave about the wildlife — the living reef with tropical fish, sharks, rays and real corals, wild birds, lizards and wallabies.
