South Pacific Holidays

Most statistics pertaining to the mighty Pacific Ocean barely make sense; it is so vast (and deep) as to be almost beyond comprehension, covering a third of the earth’s surface and an area greater than all dry land combined. And scattered far and wide throughout the Pacific are thousands of islands, many of which are popularly viewed as amongst the most heavenly travel destinations in the world. The South Pacific, particularly, is positively blessed with many extraordinary tropical islands that make utterly perfect locations for a romantic getaway.

Take Fiji, for example; a country consisting of over 300 delightful islands that offer outstanding natural beauty, a universe of adventure and perhaps the world’s friendliest people. There are few more enchanting and romantic destinations than Fiji, which is proving an increasingly popular choice with engaged couples seeking that dream wedding or honeymoon destination.

Not as well known, but equal in beauty, are the Cook Islands. A cluster of exquisite, tiny islands surrounded by shallow, perfectly clear seas, ‘the Cooks’ are being discovered by travellers and tourists at a gradual enough pace to ensure that they will remain unspoiled and peaceful for quite some time yet. Considering the Cook Islands’ government has introduced legislation preventing the construction of any building higher than the tallest palm tree, you should get an idea of just how cosy this wonderful destination is!
