With the newlywed Pippa Middleton and James Matthews headed to the French Polynesian island of Tetiaroa for their honeymoon, here are some other beach destinations you can consider for your romantic trip.
Kingston, Jamaica
There’s never a dull moment in this Caribbean island. Couples can swing
to reggae music on Fort Clarence beach (with a little help from the
famous Jamaican rum) or simply opt for a quiet, romantic walk. Either
way, the pristine waters and white sand do not disappoint.
Seychelles
Famous for its black, red, white and gray sand, and crystal clear blue
waters of the Aegean Sea, the Santorini island is a popular tourist
spot. Most beaches are reasonably well connected to the main towns of
Fira, Firostefani, Imerovigli and Oia and hiring a car to navigate
through the island is a good option. The city makes for a romantic
setting with colorful domes and pastel walls contrasting with largely
white buildings.
An archipelago of over 115 islands in the Indian Ocean, Seychelles
offers some of the most picturesque beaches in the world. Do visit the
Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve on Praslin Island, a UNESCO World Heritage
Site known for its beautiful flora and fauna. Besides diving, fishing,
sailing and snorkeling, couples can enjoy walk trails, horse trails and
island-hopping.
Santorini, Greece
Santorini, Greece
Cape Town, South Africa
Bora Bora, French Polynesia
This French-administered island in the Pacific offers a host of
watersport options, in addition to the mesmerizing sights of turquoise
waters, white sand and coral reefs.
The city offers something for all kinds of tourists – from world class
restaurants in the central city to Robben Island and the District Six
Museum for those interested in the history of South Africa. There are
also many secluded beaches such as Beta Beach and Oudekraak, if you’re
looking for a quiet relaxing time.
Zanzibar, Tanzania
Also known as Garden Island, it’s famous for its black sand beaches,
spectacular dive sites and the Bouma National Heritage Park – that
protects over 80% of Taveuni's total area – on the eastern side of the
island.
Located off the east coast of Tanzania, this quaint island is famous for
its powdery-white beaches that are relatively under-explored. The
Zanzibar Channel runs west of the island which is where the main town
(Zanzibar Town) and the famous UNESCO World heritage site of Stone Town
are located.
Taveuni, Fiji
St. Kitts and Nevis
Located in the southern part of Spain, Costa del Sol has a glittering
Mediterranean coastline that has been attracting tourists for many
years. Malaga, the capital of the region, is a city seeped in history
and has some quaint cafes and historic alleys worth exploring.
The beautiful twin islands in the southern Caribbean are a honeymooners'
delight, offering a mix of luxurious resorts and breathtaking
landscapes, with a fair share of history, art and culture. St. Kitts has
a wide selection of restaurants, bars and hotels, while Nevis is more
staid and opulent. Couples can also soak in some sun on the beautiful
Oualie Beach and Frigate Bay. Brimstone Hill Fortress (pictured) in St.
Kitts is a must for those interested in history.
Costa del Sol, Spain
Koh Tao, Thailand
This island in central-Pacific boasts beautiful tropical rainforest and
white-sand beaches. Hanalei Bay, on the North Shore is a surfing
hotspot, while Tunnels Beach is one of the best snorkeling and diving
destinations in Kauai.
Located in the Gulf of Thailand, Koh Tao is known internationally as
Thailand’s dive island. While most beaches on Koh Tao are excellent
watersport venues, Freedom Beach offers a surprisingly secluded getaway.
Kauai, Hawaii, USA
Vancouver Island, Canada
Known for its clean, scenic beaches, Vancouver Island is an excellent
destination for snorkeling, surfing, scuba diving or simply relaxing by
the sea.
Costalegre, Mexico
Costalegre, Mexico
Translated to “Coast of Joy,” Coastalegre is a bouquet of secluded
beaches, small bays, fishing villages and cliffs. The region also has a
number of opulent resorts to make your honeymoon special.
