Honeymoon is the time you will spend alone with your partner, away from everyone else. After months, maybe even years, of preparation for the wedding, it is finally time for you and your partner to rest.
One of the most popular destinations that newlywed couples usually choose is the islands. It is refreshing about being near the ocean, away from the city, and lounging on the sand. Here are some recommendations on which island you could plan a visit to for your honeymoon.

Couples can try and boost their wellness by participating in morning yoga classes or visiting the rice paddies. In addition, you can even go for sunrise volcano hiking, soaking up the sun and views, as well as working on their fitness.

The Maldives, a collection of 26 oval-shaped atolls and over 1,000 coral islands, has become one of the most popular honeymoon destinations for a good reason.
