# One week in June - where to go Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea
bob1971 01:40 UTC 14 Apr 2008 | Hi all Looking for a bit of winter sun early / mid June, flying out of Auckland. Don't want to break the bank but equally some home comforts would be nice. 5 - 7 nights. Cost: $1,000 NZ pp and up. Want - nice beach, snorkeling off beach would be good. Half decent food. Chill out time basically. Have done some travelling around the Yasawas ect the other year (great beaches, not bad snorkelling, total rip off in terms of value for money around accommodation / quality of food etc) and had week in Samoa last year (stayed near airport. Though beaches v disappointing). Any suggestions. New Calendonia, Raro? etc etc cheers in advance Bob |
