Honeymoon Destinations

Nowadays, newlyweds jet off to every corner of the globe, so it is important to research seasonal climate trends at your preferred honeymoon destination to avoid spending your beach holiday caught up in the middle of the local rainy season. Luxury tour operator Tropical Sky explores your possibilities...

The Caribbean has traditionally been a popular tropical honeymoon destination. It’s not difficult to see why; with its guaranteed sunshine, palm-fringed beaches, lush rainforests and sparkling seas. An all-inclusive Caribbean holiday can be the ideal opportunity to relax and unwind after your big day.

Summer Honeymoon Destinations
Each of the Caribbean islands has its own distinct identity: from the majestic beauty of Jamaica’s Blue Mountains and St. Lucia’s volcanic landscape incorporating the twin Piton peaks and the Diamond Mineral baths, to the fascinating and time-frozen cultural heritage of Cuba with its world-famous music scene, the Caribbean has something for every taste.

Most Caribbean islands enjoy year-round sunshine and temperatures between 25-30C, but a few are located in the hurricane belt and can receive heavy rainfalls during the summer months, such as Barbados and the Grenadines. St Lucia and Jamaica can also be affected by occasional rainfall during the summer months, but showers tend to be rare and can offer welcome relief from high temperatures.

Winter Honeymoon Destinations
The Indian Ocean provides a number of idyllic tropical holiday destinations for winter honeymoons. The Maldives, Sri Lanka, The Seychelles and Mauritius provide average temperatures of 25-30C in the winter months.

Winter honeymooners can choose from chilled-out luxury, staying in one of the Maldives’ iconic water villas, take part in a culture-rich tour of Sri Lanka visiting ancient monuments such as the breath-taking hilltop fortress, Sigiriya, and the ancient rock caves at Dambulla, zone-out in the peaceful, colonial charms of The Seychelles or marvel at the stunning contrasting landscapes of Mauritius where stunning mountain backdrops rear up behind sweeping white sands.

Your honeymoon is a once-in-a-lifetime trip, so ensure you come back home with that all-important suntan and memories to last a lifetime, by choosing the honeymoon destination that is right for you.
