Caribbean Honeymoon Vacation With Sandy Beaches
By Julia Barnes
Princess Cruise line offers a wonderful honeymoon vacation
amid the Caribbean islands. A romantic cruise is the
best type of honeymoon, because you can leave all your
worries at home.
After months of stressful wedding planning, husbands
and wives are often feeling frazzled and exhausted.
Likely, the high of being newly wed will fill them with
energy to make it to their romantic vacation, but once
aboard the cruise ship, the temptation to lounge in
the sun with a drink in one’s hand is strong.
This April, Princess will offer a 7-night cruise out
of San Juan, Puerto Rico to St. Lucia, St. Thomas, Grenada,
Bonaire and Aruba, which offers ample opportunities
for romantic and adventurous port stop
activities.
See The Stunning Locations In Old San Juan
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, fancy hotel
resorts, business districts and trendy bars.
In Old San Juan, you’ll encounter an exotic blend of
Spanish, Italian and South American influences that
are very much akin to Cuba. You’ll see preserved 16th
century architecture, forts, antique shops, pastel buildings,
cobblestone streets and stunning cathedrals.
The El Morro Fort
History lovers will review and appreciate the El Morro
fort, San Cristobal Fort, La Fortaleza, Catedral de
San Juan and Museo Pablo Casals. The Bacardi Rum Factory
can add a little fun to your romantic weekend and, if
you’re feeling lucky, try your hand at the Sheraton
or Ritz-Carlton casinos. Waterfalls and wildflowers
await a scenic stroll at El Yunque rainforest.
Aruba is a honeymoon vacation destination with rich
cultural influences -- from the Arawak Indians to the
Old World Spanish and later, the Dutch. Aruba has been
called "One Happy Island" and "The Caribbean’s
Theme Park" because it boasts over 24 diving sites,
famous shipwrecks, championship golf courses, casinos
and duty-free shops featuring everything from Tommy
Hilfiger to diamonds.
Beach Vacation Drinking Pink Iguanas
Eager shoppers load up on British chocolates and Dutch
cheeses in the gift shops here, while beach vacation-loving
people sip Pink Iguanas and Balashi beer on the sandy
shores. While shops and restaurants are within walking
distance, the beaches are a $14 taxi ride or $2.30 bus
ride away.
Many cruisers like to rent snorkel equipment from Red
Sail Sports at the cruise terminal (for $15), then head
down to Malmok Beach to see colorful coral and tropical
fish just ten feet from shore, as well as Antilla, a
WWII German freighter wreck.
Horseback Riding Together On The Beach
Romantic vacation activities include horseback riding
to Malmok Beach, Alto Vista Chapel or in Arikok National
Park; golfing at a Robert Trent-Jones course in Tierra
del Sol; parasailing at Palm Beach; and dinner at Passions
on the Beach at the Amsterdam Manor Beach Resort. Real
party animal couples won’t want to miss the Kukoo Kunuku
party bus for dinner and a tour of local watering
holes.
If you’ve seen Pirates of the Caribbean I and II, then
you’ve caught a glimpse of what a honeymoon vacation
in Dominica might entail. Dubbed "Nature Island,"
this port stop is more rainforest, waterfalls, freshwater
pools, hot springs, mango trees, ginger root and dense
vegetation than it is sandy beach.
Wild Birds And Whales Off The Coastline
Animal lovers may spot over 172 types of wild birds
or 7 different types of whales off the coastline. Your
romantic cruise ship will likely dock at Roseau Cruise
Ship Berth, which is just steps away from unique shops,
local restaurants and transportation hubs.
You won’t find anything cliché or generic about the
businesses here, since the locals are fierce advocates
of their own distinctive cultural contributions. If
you docked in Portsmouth, you’ll see some off the only
white sand beaches on the island and the famous Cabrits
National Park, home of a major historic battle between
the French and English.
Mountain biking, kayaking, whale and bird watching,
scuba diving, Creole dining, hiking and swimming are
some of the adventurous pastimes you may add to your
honeymoon vacation destination package.

More Romantic Vacations Facts....
I want to look into some romantic vacations but I
do not want to travel very far. Can I find some locally?
No matter where you live, unless
you live in the Arctic Circle, there are usually romantic
destinations close by that you probably are not aware
of and have not visited. Most are usually within a short
drive of your own home.
You do not even have to leave
your city to find romantic vacations. You just need
a little bit of ingenuity and some creativity and you
can create your own romantic vacation. Find a local
bed and breakfast and spend a few nights. When you are
not cuddled up at the inn you should check out local
restaurants you have always wanted to try but did not
have the time.
A romantic vacation can be absolutely
anything you want it to be. Why not visit the local
zoo with your loved one before having a night out on
the town? Make sure and pack something dressy so you
can get into the whole experience. If you do a simple
Google search of your area you are sure to find some
romantic hot spots very close to home.
