The Greek Islands are an amazing spot to relax. The over 6,000 islands very in size, activities, landscape, pretty much anything you are looking for you can find in these beautiful Mediterranean isles. Crete is the largest and most well known of the islands. It is over 3,000 square feet of bliss. You will most likely fly into the largest city, Herakloin. This is a place to go is you love luxury. The islands are rich in history if you want to do some educational tours as well. If you would like a less traveled island, try any of the Northern Aegean islands ( Chios, Ikaria, Limnos, Lesvos, Samos, Samothraki, and Thassos). These islands have the Greek culture that you are thinking about in your head right now. They are gorgeous, like all the islands, but have a quieter feel. Karpathos is also a quieter island that keeps the traditional Greek atmosphere without being too indulged in tourism. You can still find luxury hotels on the beach here, but it’s not a party town.
But we know what you really want to hear about, how intoxicating the Greek sun and sand combo can be! Some activities that you outdoorsy types will enjoy: scuba diving, snorkeling, sunbathing (of course), shopping, hiking, walks on the many Oceanside trails, trying new cuisine at the diverse cafes and restaurants, donkey rides, walking through old volcanic grounds, visit historical sites (each island offers ruins from Greece’s past). You may also find it interesting to invest some time in checking out local pubs!! Your experiences will be ones which constantly call you back to the islands.
There are approximately 30 islands for you to enjoy in the Caribbean from Antigua and Barbuda, Jamaica, Aruba, Bahamas, British and American Virgin Islands, Dominican republic, Grenada, Puerto Rico, we think you get the idea. And one of the most appealing attribute for Americans is the location!! These islands are right next door (if you live in Florida), yet the culture takes you a million miles away from the busy cities and quick dinners between errands. If they made that big of an impact on the Beach Boys, imagine what they can do for a honeymoon. Visit our honeymoon site to see some spectacular deals going on now.
The Caribbean’s warm water is a dream come true for those of you who like boating and water sports like water skiing and jet skiing. For you more romantic types, may we suggest a destination wedding in Grenada? The beautiful beach in the background of all your romance will make all your friends and family well up with tears as they flip through photos years down the road. Laluna (Grenada) and Hermitage Bay (Antigua) are my personal favorites for capturing the ultimate wedding ecstasy.
When traveling to Jamacia we suggest the northern cities like Montego Bay and Ocho Rios. But no matter where you stay on the island, you must go visit Dunns River Falls. The sound of tons of water crashing down a 600 feet clif is just the kind of awe every honeymoon hopes to acquire. You can hike up the waterfalls, or take boats or helicopters if you prefer luxury to an up close attachment with nature.
Or you can visit the Santo Domingo Ruins in the Dominican Republic. There is also a great appreciation for the arts; you can choose from glamorous art galleries and street venders full of culture, or try both! Try to make it to El Conde Street and Plaza Criolla.
No matter which Island or islands you choose to stay on, you will be inspired by Caribbean cuisine, art, architecture, and of course the music and dance! Nothing says celebration like the bright clolors and festive music that can only be found in the Caribbean..
Venice:
July and August are perfect times for you warm weather lovers to travel!! (June and September are a bit cooler, but low 70s are perfect if you don’t like to sweat!) If your wedding plans are for late winder/ early spring, we suggest Venice. Enjoying Mardis Gras in Venetian style is an amazing way to celebrate your new vows! Day trips are an amazing way to take a vacation from your vacation. Head over to Lido Island for a relaxing day of golf; Visit Veneto to avoid the busy Venice weekends and taste some amazing wines; or you could stay local and just take a trip to the different world of the streets ad gondolas!! Or if you like to make friends take a water bus (Vaporetto); I promise you, you will not regret going down the Grand Canal in one of these!
Once-in-a-lifetime finds can be seen all over the Rialto Market!! Find precious jewelry and silks, breathtaking Venetian glass and masks (perfect for you Mardi Gras lovers), and crafts of all kinds. You can spend an entire afternoon browsing if you’d like! It’s near the gorgeously constructed Rialto Bridge. We suggest going down the Grand Canal to get to the market!
