Top 50 honeymoon destinations
Wondering where to spend the holiday of a lifetime? Be inspired by the top 50 places around the world.
Antigua
With 365 beaches (one for each day of the year) and the sunniest climate in the eastern Caribbean, Antigua is a great Caribbean honeymoon destination. A lush island, Antigua is a laid-back paradise with picturesque scenery, fantastic restaurants and some of the best hotels in the world. Dive, sail, swim with dolphins, sip Antiguan rum, do a spot of shopping in St John's and pop over to the neighbouring island of Barbuda if you want to have a mini-adventure.
Australia
With unspoilt beaches, rainforests, dusty bush and contemporary cities, Australia is the sixth largest country in the world so really does offer a huge range of activities. If you decide to fly to Sydney, you'll experience the delights of the Opera House, the harbour and the Royal Botanic Gardens. Don’t miss a trip to the winelands either. Those looking for something more secluded should head to the Great Barrier Reef for some snorkelling or diving, before heading off to a deserted hideaway. Adventurous types can explore the Outback and Ayers Rock.
Bahamas
The Bahamas consists of a staggering 700 islands. Nassau, the glamorous capital city, resides on New Providence Island. Grand Bahama offers a selection of glamorous resorts, and the Out Islands are the most remote in The Bahamas. A combination of a trip to Nassau with a romantic stay on the Out Islands would be an unbeatable honeymoon. With names like Exuma, Eleuthera, Bimini and Andros, the Out Islands are home to golden beaches and turquoise seas. You can choose to take part in numerous activities, or simply make the most of the tranquil surroundings.
Bali
Bali is one of 18,000 islands in Indonesia, and its draw is that it is both enigmatic and accessible. Bali has a huge amount to offer, from fabulous local culture and lively nightlife, to luxurious resorts with golf courses and delicious Balinese cuisine.
Barbados
Barbados is a small, luxurious piece of Britain in the Caribbean. Home to refined hotels such as Sandy Lane, Barbados lures the rich and famous with its white sand beaches and gourmet restaurants. If you've got money to spend, Barbados is a haven, but you don't have to be part of the glitterati to stay here. There are numerous places to stay, and activities such as snorkelling and sipping Barbadian rum won't break the bank.
