Homemade Honeymoons
You Don't Have to Go Overseas for the Honeymoon of Your Dreams
North
Get back to nature with a honeymoon in the Northern Territory. Explore the 20,000 square kilometres of lush wetlands and woodland plains that make up Kakadu National Park. Enjoy world-class fishing in the Territory's many billabongs, tidal rivers and mangrove-lined estuaries - you'll really experience nature at its best in this part of Australia. You won't have to spend your nights cooped up in a concrete high-rise hotel either. Check into Arnhem Land's exclusive Seven Spirit Bay and stay in one of the 24 habitats scattered throughout the woodlands. The habitats have louvred walls that allow you to merge with the surrounding bushland whilst remaining in comfort.
South
If you're after peace, tranquility and a romantic hideaway, then Jacobs Creek Resort in South Australia is the ideal place for honeymoons. Nestled on the banks of the historic Jacob's Creek is a 1840s bluestone settlement containing five luxury honeymoon suites. Each suite features a log fire, Barossan antiques, a Romanesque spa ensuite and its own French raked courtyard for the ultimate in relaxation and privacy. The resort also offers exquisite multi-course degustation dinners served with a selection of South Australia's finest wines to complete your indulgence.
East
White sandy beaches, turquoise waters and the awe-inspiring Great Barrier Reef make the Whitsunday Islands one of the most magical and popular destinations for honeymoons in the world. Daydream Island Spa and Resort is often described as the jewel of the Whitsundays and with its world-class restaurants, lagoon style swimming pools and open air cinema, it's little wonder why. Refresh your body, mind and soul with a pampering treatment in the resort's rejuvenation spa to relieve the post-wedding stress. Sail a catamaran, stroll in the rainforest or sip a glass of champagne on the beach at sunset. The resort offers sensational packages with lots of exciting extras. Visit Day Dream Island's website for more details.
West
They say that if you head to Western Australia's Coral Coast for your honeymoon, you'll find the bluest ocean you'll see anywhere in the world. Located South of Perth, the Coral Coast is an eco-wonderland. Not only will you swim in the bluest of oceans, you'll share the water with whale sharks and dolphins making your holiday an absolutely unforgettable experience. As the area is also the hub of Western Australia's crayfishing industry you can spend your days feasting on the freshest seafood too. No wonder they also say that the West is the Best.
