Lord Howe Island is one of the most beautiful parts of Australia. This World Heritage listed island has been kept pristine, and is a paradise for anyone looking to enjoy crystalline waters, the white sand beaches, and the variety of adventure and leisure activities available here.

Go to Ned"s Beach and feed the rich marine life that live in the corals beneath the surface of the water, golf on the island’s famous course, paddle board along the coast, do a dive trip further out to sea, hike up Mount Gower, or duck into the Lord Howe Island Museum and Visitor Centre.
