Easter holiday ideas

March 30th 2007 07:24
The upcoming holiday break could be the last chance to make the most of the warm weather before winter comes on. I am enjoying the autumn cooling off myself, but I'm sure many will be keen to get out in the sun over the easter long weekend, or if you are lucky, the longer break coinciding with uni or school holidays.

I myself am heading down to Wollongong, an hour south of Sydney. I'll be relaxing in a spa and having a nice quiet time. Further south would suit a four day trip - so heading down to Jamberoo or Ulladulla are good options.

If you want a similar location in Victoria, you may want to head south of Melbourne to Torquay. It is a little bit colder than Wollongong, but has a huge surfing tradition and culture, if that is your thing.

Queensland is still rather warm anywhere in the state and Brisbane is only a one hour plane trip from Sydney. The theme parks on the Gold Coast will no doubt see a few people flood through the turnstyles next weekend too.

Back to NSW, and if you want to get to the Blue Mountains before it gets too cold, now is your chance. A good place to relax or get into some bush walking.

The end of the music festival season should not be forgotten either. The East Coast Blues and Roots Festival at Byron Bay is on and has traditionally been one of Australia's most well received and supported music festivals.

The best thing about next weekend of course is no school or work, whatever you get up to.
