Eddie McGuire, Millionaire Hot Seat presenter.

"Blue sky, blue sea, cold beer, BBQs and cricket."

Lauren Phillips, radio host

"A day that includes a swim in the ocean, sunshine, great friends, great food, an afternoon nap and sunset cocktails is my dream day."

Darren Palmer, The Block judge

"Wake up when I wake up. A good breakfast. A swim and a lay by the pool in the sun. Visit somewhere interesting (particularly if they have good food and drinks). Relaxed early dinner and a good night's rest."

"Hot weather, no wind, laying by a pool reading. Simple simple, but absolute bliss."

Neale Whitaker, The Block judge

"A lazy one with no emails to respond to. Loading the dogs in the car in the late afternoon and driving to one of our secret beaches for a swim. We live on the NSW south coast and beaches tend to be dog-friendly at the end of the day!"

Livinia Nixon, 9News Melbourne presenter

"Hanging with friends in the sunshine, a long lunch, a little nap, a good book, a swim in the ocean and lots of cuddles with my boys. Perfection!"

"Water skiing, fun, BBQ, cricket on TV."

Shelly Horton, 9Honey presenter

"My ideal day on the holidays would definitely involve fishing. I have the ancient skill of knowing how to catch sand worms by hand. Trust me, it's equally gross and impressive. So, worming in the morning. Then a nice lunch and a nap to avoid the heat of the day and to ensure I don't burn like a crisp. Then fishing mid-afternoon. Catching lots of whiting. I think fishing is my form of meditation. Then maybe a dip in the sea and a delicious dinner with lots of booze. Heaven."
