South Pacific Vacations

South Pacific beach vacations give you the chance to escape from it all and feel rejuvenated by a week on a secluded palm-fringed beach. Pristine white sand, turquoise lagoons ringed with coral reefs, and excellent beach resorts make the South Pacific the destination of choice for many people who want true relaxation.

South Pacific beach vacations on island destinations like Fiji and Tahiti offer world-class luxury resorts, with perfectly groomed white sand beaches, spa treatments, delicious South Pacific cuisine, and clear lagoons perfect for snorkeling and swimming. These are wonderful places to get pampered and lose track of time.

The Cook Islands offer a true getaway with 15 tiny islands scattered over a vast expanse of ocean. Snorkel with the colorful fish and marvel at gigantic clams before experiencing a glimpse into an ages-old Polynesian culture with local live entertainment at night.

The islands of Samoa and Tonga offer more adventurous tourists a less developed side of South Pacific beach vacations, with plenty of secluded beaches, less tourism, and an authentic glimpse of the fascinating local culture. Gaze out at the ocean from your beach bungalow and explore villages on the coast of these islands with the help of friendly locals.

The largest islands of the South Seas are, of course, Australia and New Zealand, and these should not be neglected by travelers considering South Pacific beach vacations. Australia's miles of Gold Coast are a surfer's paradise, and New Zealand has some gorgeous and unique beaches, including a hot water beach where mineral springs warm the sea water. This natural spa experience will certainly make a great story to tell when you get home!
