Honeymoon vacation in the Caribbean

The main honeymoon vacation destination is the Caribbean Islands, which are world-renowned for their pristine sand, tropical climate and mesmerizing landscapes. The extensive list of island vacations can take you to Anguilla, Antigua, Barbuda, Aruba, Bahamas, Barbados, British Virgin Islands, US Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Colombia, Cuba, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Grenada, Guadeloupe , Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Martinique, Mexico, Montserrat, Netherlands Antilles, Nicaragua, Puerto Rico, Saint Barthélemy, Saint Kitts, Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Martin (France), Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago and the Turks Islands and Caicos. One of the most popular ways to get to these islands is to take a romantic cruise. Here are some of the top cruise port stops for honeymooners.

San Juan, Puerto Rico is an intriguing US territory and a popular honeymoon vacation stop. In New San Juan, you’ll find McDonald’s and American cuisine, luxury resort hotels, shopping districts and trendy bars. In Old San Juan, you’ll find an exotic mix of Spanish, Italian, and South American influences that are a lot like Cuba. You’ll see preserved 16th-century architecture, fortresses, antique shops, pastel-colored buildings, cobblestone streets, and impressive cathedrals. History buffs will appreciate Fort El Morro, Fort San Cristóbal, La Fortaleza, San Juan Cathedral, and the Pablo Casals Museum. The Bacardi Rum Factory can add a little fun to your romantic weekend, and if you’re feeling lucky, try your luck at the Sheraton or Ritz-Carlton casinos. Waterfalls and wildflowers await a scenic drive in the El Yunque Rain Forest.

St. Thomas is included in almost all honeymoon vacation itineraries for cruises going to the Caribbean, the Bahamas, South America, and Panama. Magen’s Bay is arguably one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, which also includes amenities like restaurants, bars, and swimwear shops. Water Island’s Honeymoon Beach is a favorite with locals who just want to sunbathe and lounge amidst the coconut palms, without noisy bars or enthusiastic shoppers. Snorkelers flock to world-famous Trunk Bay, bikers love the Water Island Bike Tour, experienced divers visit Coki Point, and golfers stop at Mahogany Run, a course overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. St. Thomas is also a shopper’s paradise, so if your island vacation must include some great deals, this stop will be worth it.

It is surprising that Grenada, “the island of spices”, is still a viable honeymoon vacation spot after Hurricane Ivan in 1994, which destroyed 90% of the buildings on this island. Despite the terrible devastation, much of the land has been rebuilt and revitalized. After your ship docks, your island vacation begins. You can walk to tourist destinations in St. George, such as the National Museum of Granada, Plaza del Mercado, and several beautiful churches. If you dock at Carenage, you’ll be just a short taxi ride from the city’s forts and the world-famous Grand Anse beach. Once you reach the beach, you can go scuba diving, snorkeling, windsurfing, parasailing, and kayaking. For the best snorkeling visit Moliniere Point and for the best hiking visit Annandale Falls or Grand Etang National Park. The Dougaldston Spice Estate and the Goyave Nutmeg Processing Station can give you an interesting look at how spices are produced. La Sagesse beach is one of the most secluded and relaxing areas on the island, with a salt pond, mangroves and tropical birds.
