We have been to all the ones you have plus Wala (loved it) :) and Luganville (great snorkelling). We have always been lucky to go to Vila on every cruise and we have been to Mystery Island and Isle of Pines enough. Great places but not to go their too many times

He nearly does :D :p (part from I am not counting Hawaii ;))

 

There are still a lot more to visit yet...

I am running out of time:eek:

 

You still have plenty of time KK... :)

 

Let me think.............hmmmm...........do Stradbroke Island and Fraser Island count??

 

Did you do them on a cruise ship??, but I am not counting Australia / NZ / Hawaii…

this has been intriguing- we've done the Hawaiin Islands and the Tahitian ones by cruise ship, but how do you find ships for Fijian islands and some of those others mentioned. Who's sailing the more obscure island waters? In Fiji or some of the others off the beaten track- where did you find the best snorkeling? This was a really interesting thread. Thanks for starting it.

small ps- I should have been more clear, I'm not familiar with the P&O line, is it something that only sails out of Australia or something you can pick up while in the South Pacific islands? Ever see any Americans joining in?
