dellamorte asked: I want to take my partner on a surprise short holiday for his 30th birthday, but I don't have much money. We live in QLD Australia, and I want to find somewhere that will be warm enough to snorkel and swim, and I want to stay in a decent resort - nothing fancy, but no camping or backpacking, or lice ridden motels.
Where is a CHEAP holiday destination that will be hot in August-September? Doesn't have to be a typical tourist haunt.
Thanks!
edit : The Gold Coast is actually where I live.. so I don't really consider it a holiday destination.

Also, I think it's bloody freezing here in August and I definately wouldn't be snorkeling or swimming then!! But thanks
