Tour description
Lord Howe Island is a timeless pristine paradise less than two hours flying from Sydney and is widely regarded as the most beautiful island in the Pacific. It is one of only four island groups to be inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage list for the significance of its natural beauty. The pace is relaxed but there are plenty of activities and adventures to choose from.
The Island is dominated by the twin peaks of Mount Gower (875m) and Mt Lidgbird (777m) and contains some spectacular bushwalks for the adventurous. The less energetic however, will not have to climb too far to enjoy some of the 160 species of flowering plants or 120 species of birds or the giant Banyan trees or famous Kentia palms.
The Lagoon is a beautiful expanse of calm turquoise water enclosed by a six kilometre long coral reef on the western side of the island, making it a haven for snorkelers. Colourful tropical and sub tropical fish abound with turtles and other marine life just a few strokes from shore.

Dear On Course, I was unable to thank you yesterday for a wonderful trip. Every aspect of the tour was first class, even the Weather! But I want to mention the drinks and trivia night that you arranged to make our time so pleasant. It is these elements which make On Course so much better than your competitors.
