With 115 pristine islands, sugar sand beaches, warm turquoise waters with enchanting mountainsides, the Seychelles is a place you will go and won’t be disappointed. You will be able to explore the underwater world of turtles, marine fishes, kaleidoscopic coral gardens and even ancient shipwrecks. It is known as one of the most romantic places in the world. If you are like me and can’t sit on the beach for too long, the Seychelles is the perfect place as not only can you relax you can also go island hopping for a bit of fun! There are regular ferries, speedboat and helicopter transfers so you can combine at least two or three destinations should you wish.

The Maldives is a fan favourite for many couples with each resort sitting on its very own island. When you arrive there are no long transfers, you will instead soon be stepping ashore on your private white-sand beach escaping from the hectic few months leading to your wedding. Just like Bora Bora you can have your very own villa over water and access to secluded private beaches. You can fill your days by relaxing on the beach, eating endless amounts of luxurious food followed by world-class snorkelling and diving alongside many other water sports. All followed by some spa treatments, sunset cruises and picnics on uninhabited islands.
