I grew up on the small Pacific nation of New Zealand and exploring the other islands of the sprawling Pacific area as an adult has been a real treat. Honeymoon destinations of Fiji, Bora Bora and Hawaii maybe take their share of the limelight, but delve a little deeper and find other small nation gems such as the Cook Islands, Noumea and Vanuatu among others. Tropical palms sway in the perpetual summers breeze, paradise has been found.
