Help needed with choosing an August honeymoon destination

Clare247, 20 November, 2010 at 22:09 Posted on Honeymoons & Getting Married Abroad 0 10

Sorry - am reposting this question in the honeymoon forum...

Hello all,

We're getting married in July 2011 and are looking at honeymoon destinations. I would LOVE to go to Cuba (I've just always wanted to go there and the combination of Caribbean beaches and Havana culture sounds perfect) but I know that August is not the best time of year to go so have scrapped that...

Do any of you have suggestions for something similar but where we would have good weather in August? I suppose we are looking for somewhere where you can both relax and explore - I couldn't cope with two weeks on a beach or two weeks climbing mountains but something in the middle would be good!

Thanks in advance

    Hi there!

    Have a look at the Sandals in Emerald Bay, its new. The Bahamas dont get hit by the tropical storms as much as some of the other islands and it will be perfect there!

    Good luck!

    Why not save all your money , stay at home and buy lots of sexy lingerie for a wild honeymoon experience.

    How about Mexico? Some of the beach resorts are lovely, and once you've had your fill of beaches there's plenty to explore inland - Mayan ruins, amazing jungles and wildlife. Weather should be good in August.

    Have had a few replies on the same post I made on the wedding planning forum... a few people have said that the caribbean should be fine but I'm still not totally sure so we're also looking at mauritius, mozambique and california at the moment - so much choice, it's really exciting!

    Have you got any other ideas for September gsijane?

    Hi Clare

    My Name is Michaella and I am a Homeworking Travel Agent. August should be fine for any of the Caribbean Islands, You may experience the occasional Tropical Downpour which could last for upto an hour but with the heat and humidity the rain will soon clear. You are right in thinking though that August used to be the time to avoid and classed as the hurricane season for the Caribbean, however, it is now Late Sept - Early/Mid Nov that is classed as 'Hurricane Season'.

    If I can be of any more assistance drop me an email: *********.*******@***********.**.**

    We're going into January the Travel Trades busiest time so I really wouldn't wait mouch longer before you get something confirmed - Here to help!!

    Have a great day

    Kind Regards

    Hiya

    Were honeymooning end of Aug and doing 3 nights in Sri Lanka and 7 nights in the Maldives! We felt that it would be a good combination as lots to do In Sri Lanka and the lazy in Maldives.

    Hope that helps!

    Mozambique would be amazing and is on my list along with Zambia. I know I'm biased but what about Tanzania? Safaris are pretty good and then a boat ride or quick flight over to Zanzibar where you could spend some of the time on the beach and a couple of days in Stone Town. Of course there's also the option of climbing Kili but you'd probably be better saving your energy for more fun things ?
