You might not usually consider holidaying in a volcano, but this is one you should. The World Heritage-listed Lorde Howe Island and its surroundings exist as the remains of a seven-million-year-old volcano. As a result, the island is home to a remarkable ecosystem and a variety of lush flora, fauna and landscapes. This tropical oasis offers crystal-clear water, expansive and scenic hikes, snorkelling with colourful coral and marine life, and a bounty of bucket-list adventures. Be warned, though, you can't just head over to this tropical oasis on a whim. To help protect the beauty and sanctity of the island, only 400 visitors are allowed at any one time. With that in mind, booking a Lorde Howe Island Holiday Package with the Travel Experts at Flight Centre is the best way to secure your holiday in heaven. We'll take care of the details so you can spend more time planning perfect days spent swimming, exploring, eating and bird watching at this tropical oasis.
