Heaven on Earth!!!

We are about to make our 14th trip to Lord Howe Island at the end of this month. The island and its scenery, plants and birds, hiking and beaches are absolutely beautiful, and the peace and unhurried ambiance add to its charms. We always stay at Capella. There are other good places to stay.....tourism is controlled so there are no crowds. You can leave your bike and helmet anywhere on the island, and it will be there (with all your stuff) when you return from your hike.

You do need to stay AT LEAST 3-5 nights: occasionally a flight is delayed by a day (weather) so don't have tight connections on the mainland.

Its "expensive" only in terms of $$$: for sheer beauty its priceless!
