    How about the barrier reef? You can do the glass bottom boat to the reef without walking and snorkelling/swimming is nice when you're preggers.
    Cruising in the Whitsundays would be nice and you wouldn't have to do much walking.
    How about a spa for some pampering?

    Whitsundays is currently fav idea as we did that may 2006 for our honeymoon!!!
    Had a lovely cruise out to reefworld and snorkled on the reef was soooo amazing!
    Its just the flight length that i am concerned about

    Maybe you could break the flight up with an over night stop in Brisbane or the Gold Coast....

    I can't help you with idea on where to go, but QLD sounds great.

    I flew from Adelaide to Sydney return the next day at 36+2. I have been told my belly isn't huge but I did notice the difference in lack of room. My elbow doesn't squish in at my side like it usually does and because I was by the window going over and DH in the middle taking up all the armrest I ended up feeling squashed. I should have/ could have spoken up but he was asleep. It wasn't too bad though and was only about 1.5-2hours. Coming back the flight attendants were great and asked me if I needed a pillow or anything, it was an all female crew whereas going over it was all male. I flew Qantas.

    I didn't have any drams and if you can arrange a stop somewhere along the way you should be fine. Everyone is different and depends on how you carry etc.

    Good luck in deciding where to go, and the plane flight can be done and isn't too bad.

    Why don't you go to Vanuatu, heaps cheaper than the whitsunday's and it isn't a long flight. I can highly recommend it.
