Martinique

Take a canopy tour and go hiking in the rainforest gullies before getting a taste of excellent Creole cuisine, go shopping and sampling the fairly lively nightlife.

Anguilla

When people choose a Caribbean honeymoon this island is over-seen more times than not. You will not find much commercialization here, the nightlife is pretty low key and watersports are not a big draw. But you have dozens of fabulous beaches to explore and fine dining is possibly the best in all the Caribbean.

British Virgin Islands (BVI)

You have several islands to choose from with many hotel options to a secluded romantic retreat. Ride a yacht to the famous Baths of Virgin Gorda or find a hidden beach for you and your loved one to enjoy all alone. The beach bars on Jost Van Dyke is a fun hangout popular with sailors.

All beautiful areas here that they are all considered part of the U.S. makes things easier. St. John has the best beaches and diving while St. Thomas is known for excellent food and shopping. Of course, St. Croix cheaper and also has casinos, so you can download or jump around. The variety USVI makes it one of the best honeymoon destinations.

Jamaica

We absolutely love Ocho Rios. On Dunn's River Falls has to be the coolest adventure climb on any island. Climb the waterfall and jump into the water ... amazing! Riding on the beach, a little reggae music and rum at sunset and you've got yourself a nice romantic holiday plus it's great for a budget honeymoon.

Cayman Islands
