Lord Howe Island Cool Season Specials: Five nights for Under $700

Be spellbound by Lord Howe Island's legendary beauty for under $700 for five nights. Cool season packages for Australia's closest Pacific island paradise start at $699 for five nights in a self-contained apartment, and range across traditional guesthouses to luxury lodges, including flights and island transfers – and it's less than two hours' flight from Sydney or Brisbane.
 
Lord Howe is that travel clich̩: a well-kept secret. World Heritage-listed, the island has a limit of just 400 visitors, and is revered as the most beautiful island in the Pacific. There are no resort complexes or nightclubs, just 11 golden sand beaches to choose from, a network of walking tracks along the cliffs and through palm and banyan forests and family-owned accommodation. Water-wise, there's kayaking, fishing and SCUBA diving or snorkelling on the pristine coral reef Рthe world's most southerly.
 
The island is also one of the world's best bird-watching destinations and the cool season is when many of the 130 resident species come home to nest.
 
Cool season escape packages are on sale now until May 18 for travel between May 18 and September 18, 2009. All packages include special-price air travel with QantasLink ex Sydney or Brisbane, accommodation and island transfers.
 
It's a little-known wonder, but those who have discovered the secret have been coming back to Lord Howe for generations.
