Comedy romance starring Gregory Harrison, Lisa Hartman, Mark Linn-Baker

Gordon and Sydney are a successful young couple, desperately in need of a rest from the stresses of their city lives. They decide to go on holiday to the South Seas, but far from being able to recuperate, they are shipwrecked on an isolated island. Their relationship is then put to the test by the attractions of two of the inhabitants - a mysterious American, Bill, and Tarita, a native girl.
