Adventure Travel Honeymoons
You don't have to lounge in a beach chair to relax.

Green Honeymoons
Do you prefer that your romantic honeymoon destinations don't come with a side of global warming? Get in tune with nature while minimizing your carbon footprint at eco-friendly resorts for a great green honeymoon.

• Turtle Island, Fiji: Only 14 couples are allowed on the island at one time in order to sustain the natural habitat.
• Maho Bay Camp, St. John, Virgin Islands: Stay in a hand built tent-cottage and spend your honeymoon swimming and hiking.
