Antigua honeymoons are probably just about as romantic and as luxurious as you can get. Imagine 365 beaches with soft powder sand, swaying palms and warm turquoise seas. Pair this with romantic accommodation, sunset cruises, stunning coral reefs and friendly hospitality, and you’ll see why it’s a perfect honeymoon destination.
Take a helicopter ride across the island
Take a romantic helicopter ride with your loved one above the island and revel in the stunning views of lush hills, aquamarine seas and white sand beaches. A real Caribbean treasure, Antigua is beautiful seen from the ground, but to see it from the air will make a very special addition to your honeymoon. Book yourself on an Antigua honeymoon package at one of the island’s best resorts – Blue Waters and they can organise a helicopter ride for you.
Relax with a couples’ massage at the spa
Most of Antigua’s top resorts have deluxe spas where you can indulge in baths, scrubs, massages and wraps. Why not enjoy this relaxation with your new spouse and try a couples’ massage? Choose from traditional Swedish massages with aromatherapy oils, hot stone massages or deep tissues massages. All are guaranteed to make any stresses disappear, causing you feel totally relaxed.
Enjoy a sunset cruise
Antigua is a famous sailing destination and it even holds the well-known Antigua Sailing Week, which attracts thousands here each spring. The conditions on the island are perfect for hitting the water, with warm trade winds and calm seas, so getting out on the sea here is a must. Enjoy a romantic sunset sail or cruise around the island, complete with stars up above and champagne in hand. What could be more romantic than that? Many of the island’s resorts or tour companies can organise this for you.
Go for a romantic beach walk
Walking hand in hand down the sandy beach can be pretty special and with 365 beaches on Antigua to choose from, you’ll be spoilt for choice. It will also ensure that you have a bit of privacy on your romantic walk too. Head for the five secluded Hawksbill Beaches or get a ride over to the stunning beaches of uninhabited Prickly Pear Island. This could be a great spot for a romantic honeymoon picnic too.
Go on a shopping trip
You’ll definitely want to buy a little souvenir of your honeymoon, so take a shopping trip to the capital of St John’s. Choosing a little memento of your holiday together could be great honeymoon activity. And if you don’t want to have to worry about transport or where to find the best shops, then many of the resorts can arrange for a taxi to pick you up and take you to all the best places. How about a painting of the island or a bottle of rum so you can make exotic cocktails when you return home too?
