Beaches, bays and impressive coastlines beckon almost all Australian travelers. However, not everyone is wowed by the same waves, and everyone has their own idea of what their perfect beach might be. In terms of relaxation and really getting away from the world you really can’t beat a beach holiday. There’s something about sun, sea and sand that drive our cars from the world and lets us really unwind from work and all the day to day turmoil of life. Beach holidays are also famous with honeymoon holiday revelers. For many brides and grooms to-be, the word "honeymoon" is synonymous with "beach." And after months of planning a fun (though high-stress) wedding extravaganza, you can see why the serenity, simplicity, and beauty of a beach honeymoon is alluring. Let us discuss about some of the beach destinations that must surely be on your bucket list.
Langkawi - Malaysia
An archipelago of 99 islands in the state of Kedah, Malaysia, Langkawi is one of the most sought after tourist destinations in Southeast Asia. Langkawi is rich in culture and natural scenery. A land of legends, Langkawi has a strong tradition of storytelling by the locals. Langkawi remained a sleepy backwater place until it gained tax-free status in 1987 which helped in the tourism boom. The prosperity brought by the tourist boom is thought by many to be the end of the Mahsuri's curse. The main town on the island, Kuah, lying on the southeastern tip, is where most ferries dock. On its western shore, lie the popular beaches of Pantai Cenang, Pantai Tengah and Pantai Kok.
Gold Coast - Australia
The Gold Coast is one of the most visited beach destinations in Australia. Situated in southeast Queensland, Gold Coast is around 78 km from Brisbane. It was first spotted by Captain James Cook in 1770 when he sailed along its coastline. Gold Coast features a number of theme parks including Dreamworld, Sea World and Warner Bros. Movie World. It has a number of golf courses and facilities for outdoor activities like jet skiing, bungee jumping, etc. With golden beaches, rainforests, adventurous water sports, fishing trips and theme parks, Gold Coast have become a major tourist hub in recent decades.
US Virgin Islands - Caribbean
Made up of St. Croix, St. John and St. Thomas, the laidback USVI offer sophisticated dining, turquoise waters and quaint towns. On St. Croix, Christiansted's colorful Danish Colonial buildings provide a lovely backdrop for dining or sailing. Underwater coral gardens are heaven for divers. On St. Thomas, shopping mecca Charlotte Amalie is hopping nightlife. Tranquil St. John offers quiet trails, secluded coves and lively Cruz Bay's shops and bars. Ferries and local air services link the islands.
Bora Bora - French Polynesia
Turquoise lagoons, soft white sands, and deep tangerine sunsets set the scene for romance on the island so nice they named it twice. Mingle with tropical fish as you flutter around Coral Gardens or Tupitipiti Point, or relax in a self-driving tour as you take in beautiful views of the once-volcanic Mount Otemanu. At the Lagoonarium you can watch sharks feedings and swim with turtles. Cap it all off with a succulent meal at one of the island’s fine French restaurants, then sip a tropical cocktail under the stars.
