Destination ideas for family holiday

[Phteven]

Any constraints at all?
What do you want to do during your holiday? There are so many different types of holiday. If you're one of those people who like to lie down beside a pool for a week then your idea of a good holiday is probably vastly different than mine. I need to do 'stuff' so I can't stand resorts.

France. France is a wonderful place for children. Drool worthy shop windows, museums aimed at the small person demographic (the science museum in Paris is fabulous), great food, beaches, mountains.....

Stradbroke Island - we took our boys camping there and they loved it so much we're going back. We spotted dolphins, turtles and rays as well as the usual beachy animals. There is snorkling, fishing, swimming (lake and sea) and sea kayaking. And a car ferry!!

Skiing - anywhere with snow on hills is awesome Germany and Austria have gingerbread houses. There are a billion articles online about the most family friendly ski resorts.

Thailand has elephants and monkeys. They both talk about the elephants.
