Tropical Locales Perfect Backdrop for Honeymoons and Romantic
Getaways
By Cameo Garrett
You've said "I do", boarded your plan, now you are off to some of
the most tranquil and romantic locations in the western hemisphere.
A romantic getaway to a lush, tropical locale is the ideal setting,
whether you're a couple beginning a new life together as newlyweds
or a couple celebrating your commitment to each other. In either case,
the enchantment of the islands of the Caribbean or Hawaii is unparalleled.
And the good news is that there's never been a time when the world's
most beautiful places have been more affordable. Many hotels and resorts
offer vacation packages that deliver the maximum pleasure for your
travel investment.
From Aruba to the Bahamas, Curacao to Jamaica, Puerto Rico to St.
Lucia, the extraordinary islands of the Caribbean cater to voyages
of love and romance.
With 14 weekly, non-stop flights to Montego Bay from Hartsfield-Jackson
Atlanta International Airport, travelers can enjoy the sandy beaches
of Jamaica. Both Negril and Grande Ocho Rios offer travelers a world
of romance combined with the warmth and laidback charm of the Jamaican
culture.
If the Pacific is more your taste, a Hawaiian vacation offers the
ultimate romantic escape. The islands' exotic beauty and upscale accommodations
are the perfect setting for a once-in-a-lifetime lovers' retreat that
will satisfy your every need and desire.
With one island seemingly more beautiful than the next, most travelers
to Hawaii visit at least three to four islands during their stay.
Oahu contains the famous Waikiki Beach, an action-packed setting for
sports and nightlife, as well as Honolulu, the largest city. Maui
is renowned for its superb beaches and dramatic volcanoes. Kauai is
known as the garden island for its lush tropical rain forests and
secluded white-sand beaches. Lanai and Molokai are the perfect haven
for couples seeking tranquility and quiet. And the big island of Hawaii,
nearly twice the size of all the other islands combined, is a hikers'
paradise, with an incredibly diverse landscape containing rainforests,
volcanoes, deserts, and snowcapped mountains.
Hartsfield-Jackson Airport offers 14 weekly non-stop flights to Honolulu,
Hawaii.
