Fiji
With the breathtaking South Pacific right on our doorstep, Australians are spoiled for choice when it comes to tropical holiday destinations.

What we love most about Fiji is how it truly offers something for everyone. Choose to pack your holiday with adventure, like jet boating through river rapids and exploring thriving coral reefs or opt for a more relaxing getaway where you barely leave your resort. Speaking of resorts, Fiji offers a wide range of accommodation options, with something to suit every type of traveller. Stay in a five-star luxury resort on the tourist-favourite Denarau Island or escape to a secluded paradise in the Mamanuca Islands. The choice is yours in Fiji.

Vanuatu
For those looking for somewhere a bit more off-the-beaten-path, consider taking a tropical holiday to Vanuatu. Stretching across the South Pacific, this collection of 83 islands offers a unique mix of rugged natural splendour, rich Melanesian culture and luxurious resort accommodation. The island of Efate is an ideal option for families, while Espiritu Santo and Tanna are great for travellers seeking adventure.
There are so many things to see and do in Vanuatu. Ash board down the slopes of an active volcano, send a letter in the world’s only underwater post office or hike to spectacular cascading waterfalls. Vanuatu is perhaps best known for its iridescent blue swimming holes – if you’re staying on Efate, the enchanting Blue Lagoon is not to be missed!

Samoa
If you travel just a little further across the South Pacific, you’ll find one of the most untouched tropical holiday destinations in the globe, Samoa. Just five hours from Australia’s east coast, Samoa has two main islands to explore: Upolu and Savaii. Visit to experience warm Samoan hospitality and breathtaking natural attractions, like the famous To-Sua Ocean Trench.
Not only will a Samoa holiday see you sipping happy hour cocktails by the beach, but it also offers a chance to immerse yourself in the traditional Polynesian way of life. Experience a taste of Samoa’s 3000-year-old culture during fiafia night – an event filled with singing, dancing and local food. You can also stay in a beachfront fale (traditional Samoan hut) for the ultimate authentic experience. Samoa offers a tropical holiday experience like no other.

New Caledonia
Did you know that you can discover a taste of Europe in the heart of the South Pacific? A mere two-hour flight from Brisbane, New Caledonia is an overseas territory of France and the perfect tropical holiday destination for Australians. Here, visitors can enjoy a delightful fusion of Melanesian culture, awe-inspiring natural beauty and a hint of French influence, making it unlike anywhere else in the South Pacific.
With over 140 islands to explore, New Caledonia has something for everyone.

Of course, the crowning jewel of New Caledonia is the World Heritage-listed lagoon, the largest in the world! For unreal snorkelling opportunities, add New Caledonia to your tropical bucket list.
