Resorts in Australia

Hello,
We are planning our honeymoon in Australia in April-May 2007. We will
be doing some travelling around and then would like to spend one week
in a resort on the Great Barrier. We are looking for a nice resort,
small island, quiet place, with a diving club. Green island is said to
be a "day trip" island, Hayman seems big with lots of people... Could
anyone advice us on a nice place to stay? My boyfriend dives so it is
important that there is a good diving club. For information, we went to
the Maldives (Ari Beach) a few years ago and are looking for this type
of place. Any help or advices would be good. Thank you all !

What about Lady Elliot Island - a great resort on the southern GBR. See
a story we wrote recently for underwater.com.au

Ive been to Lady Elliott Island. I was actually arrested on Xmas eve 1983 (I
think) on touchdown at Bundy airport after flying off Lady Elliott after a
special low level flight to prevent the bends, but that's another long
story.

Lady Elliott certainly fits the profile of: "small island, quiet place, with
a diving club."! Its got all that, plus birdshit. They are on their
honeymoon from the US. She doesn't dive. If she thinks that a black guy is
going to bring her a mango pina colada to drink in the pool while hubby is
off diving, she will be disappointed in Lady Elliott.
