Why we love it
Capella's location in the middle of a marine park means an abundance of fishing hot spots, with regular catches of Lord Howe kingfish and yellowfin tuna.
Take a dive deep into Lord Howe's unique marine ecosystem, home to a wide variety of endemic species, found nowhere else on Earth.
Take a swim around the lagoon with your snorkelling gear, to see the world's most-southern coral reefs existing just metres from the shore.
Stand atop the Malabar cliffs to spot any of Lord Howe's 14 species of seabirds, a highlight sighting will be seeing red-tailed tropicbirds perform their mating rituals./p>
Despite its small size, Lord Howe provides many different walking terrains - from easy sea level strolls to one-day mountain treks.
For a mesmerising experience, join in with the generation-spanning local tradition of feeding the fish on Ned's Beach and watch the fish shoal around you.
Take a boat out to view the world's largest sea stack standing at 550m tall, a habitat teeming with both birdlife and marine life.
Jade & Andy
Our daughter is at university in Melbourne for a year so we wanted to visit her. We haven’t really thought about visiting Australia before but we’re so glad we had a reason to travel all that way. Three weeks seems like such a long time away, but we packed it full of so many amazing experiences that it went by before we knew it. Now we’re hooked and planning our next trip as want to visit the Outback with her while she’s still Down Under!
