Australia is a dream honeymoon destination – the only problem is choosing where to go. Some couples may well have backpacked round Australia in their gap years however honeymoon packages offer a totally different experience. Whether you choose VIP luxury in a slick cosmopolitan city hotel, or lazing in the sun at an exclusive beach resort with its own private beach, we at The Co-operative Travel have a honeymoon package in Australia that’s tailor-made for you.
Australia has two climate zones. The tropical north is characterised by the Golden Coast, the reefs, palm-fringed beaches, secluded eco-lodges and a stunning array of wildlife. Most people come here in the “dry” season of May to October. However, the “wet” season of November to April is when the area is at its greenest. Tropical Queensland is a favourite destination for couples booking wedding packages abroad.
The more temperate South is characterised by the Mediterranean-style beaches of Melbourne, Perth and Sydney. Honeymoon locations here range from the surfers’ paradise of Bondi Beach, to the wildlife parks of Adelaide, to the rivers and vineyards of Melbourne.
The Australian coast is studded with high quality hotels and apartment complexes, which are perfect for honeymooning couples. Add to this the absence of cultural and language barriers, superb cuisine and exotic beaches and it is no surprise that couples booking weddings abroad often choose Australia. Another bonus is that you can fly there direct, with no need for vaccinations – a spoiler for any holiday, let alone a honeymoon.
A honeymoon package is the start of married life together, so it needs to be chosen carefully. Australia is a huge continent, so don’t be tempted to cram too much into your holiday, or you’ll never have any time for each other!
For couples with varied interests, the Cairns region of Queensland is the perfect honeymoon destination. Wandering along a white, palm fringed beach, after a romantic dinner at one of the seashore restaurants, is the perfect way to polish off a day at the Great Barrier Reef. Don’t be afraid to try new things – if you can learn how to ride a surfboard, then married life will hold no obstacles!
For soppy romantics, a honeymoon package in Adelaide gives you the chance to get up close to those perennial Australian favourites: the kangaroo and the koala bear, at Kangaroo Island. Melbourne, meanwhile, is the perfect honeymoon destination for sophisticated lovers. Slick, stylish – and a stone’s throw from the vineyards.
We at The Co-operative Travel have romantic honeymoon packages that are as individual as you are.
