AUSTRALIA Honeymoon February 2014
Hi All,
I would like to plan my honeymoon in February 2014 to Australia. We would like to have privacy, white sandy beaches with turquoise waters, nightlife and shopping to sum it all.
I have thought of a few places like Great Barrier Reef, Noosa and Whitesundays. Also can include Sydney for the city and shopping.
We would be there for almost 16-17 days from 11th February '14
Look forwrd to your suggestions.
Thanks,
Akshay

I would spend your time up at Port Douglas which is about an hour past Cairns for a wonderful honeymoon experience! The town is perfect for great restaurants,shopping,trips to the GBR,Mossman Gorge and the Daintree Rain Forest,etc. The 4 mile beach is there and there is so much to see and do without major crowds.

Hi, I have one more option to remove singapore cruise and go to new zeland - south island.
I have heard south island is better than north island
Nelson, Marbouriugh, Christchruch, Queenstown, Milford Sound etc.
Can someone please suggest?

We spent 5 days up there and it was perfect. Be sure to line up your snorkel or dive trip the first day you are up there as the weather up there can get windy and the snorkel trips will get cancelled. Do yourselves a favor and reserve with Wavelength-it only takes 30 or less out and is a wonderfully run operation. They have two marine biologists on the boat and do 3 snorkels-fabulous! Quicksilver is the big company in Port Douglas but it takes hundreds out to its "platform" so if you don't want to snorkel you can eat,gamble or walk underground. Think Asian tour groups?
I highly recommend the TIN SHED in Port Douglas for dining. It is a local/private club but if you sign in with your address you can go in. Wonderful food,great prices and overlooking the water-we ended up eating there three times as it was so good and so much fun!Check it out on Tripadvisor!
