Top 7 Honeymoon Islands To Visit
Who doesn’t want to experience sandy beaches, turquoise lagoons, palms swaying in the air during a romantic honeymoon getaway? There is more to island escapes than just laying on the beach. Find your ideal honeymoon paradise whether you want to hike, swim, explore ancient temples and so much more.
Corsica, France
Perfect for hikes, cuisine and exploring hidden sand beaches. Corsica is located in the Mediterraen and is called L’île de Beauté. This beautiful island is a place where you can easily forget the world. Observe the coastline as it tumbles to perfect golden crescents; there are also touristy things to do as well as wildness if you want it – the hiking is some of Europe’s best. Take time to indulge in fine food and indulgent retreats.
Qurimbas Archipelago, Mozambique
Perfect for Dhow cruising and culture. Why pick one island when you can have 30? That’s about how many specks of wonderful white sand make up this Indian Ocean archipelago. Among them is Ibo, home to the 16th-century Portuguese trading settlement of Ilha de Moçambique – a must-see. You can get your does of culture here, and then venture out to sail between the islands.
Huahine, French Polynesia
Perfect for Blissful beaches and ancient sites. Huahine, a 40-minute flight from Tahiti, is Polynesia at its most sublime. Slopes of tropical abundance sink into blue lagoons; there’s plenty of culture, including the highest density of marae (temples) in the territory; and opportunities abound for snorkelling, horse riding, surfing or doing nothing at all.
Tasmania, Australia
Great for culture, hiking, food and wine. Australia’s lush southern island state is where you’ll find some of the country’s best food and wine, epic mountains, cool lakes and hiking terrain. Outside the quaint capital, Hobart, there’s MONA – a world class gallery, brewery, winery and restaurant complex that will simply blow your mind. To the north you’ve got the otherworldly Bay of Fires, famed for a luxury beach hike that culminates with flair at an award-winning ecolodge.
Praslin & La Digue, Seychelles
Escape to Paradise. Beaches don’t get much better than the boulder-strewn powdery strands fringing the Seychelles. Ferries run between Mahé, Praslin and La Digue, enabling multi-isle ’moons, and a bit of local interaction. Little La Digue is car-free – explore on foot or by bike. Praslin is home to good restaurants and the Unesco-listed Vallée de Mai nature reserve, where you can stroll beneath coco de mer palms and giggle at their suggestive seeds.
Santorini, Greece
Perfect for unfettered romance and sublime sunsets. Santorini’s the sort of spot that might move you to marriage in the first place: visit this Cyclades isle with a love, and you’re bound to leave engaged. Fuul of romance, with its pretty white houses tumbling down a part-sunken caldera. Stay in a boutique bolthole where you can sip Santorini wines on a private terrace while watching the sun sink into the glittering sea.
Tioman, Malaysia
Perfect for waterfalls, local life, sublime sand. West is best when it comes to beaches in Malaysia, and Pulau Tioman, 56 km off the coast of Peninsular Malaysia, in the South China Sea, has some of the dreamiest. The fine sands and warm, crystal-clear waters fringe an adventurous interior of waterfall-filled jungle, while laid-back fishing villages ensure the island retains a local feel.
