10 most popular honeymoon locales in India

We receive this kind of queries all the time on our website. What kind of queries? Yes queries like "What would be a good choice for our honeymoon in April this year" or "We want some advice about choosing a honeymoon locale that has some water sports activities." Some want us to arrange their honeymoon in secluded Islands some want a romantic week on a green hill station. So I thought I will summarize some of our advices and roll them into a "top 10 most popular" post.

It was a Herculean task to compile the list. Every one out there seems to have a different opinion. I am no different from everyone, so I have an opinion too. I considered some of the popular travel portals, consulted some of leading Travel consultants, analyzed tourist data and added to it my company's business report in this particular sector. Finally I have arrived at a conclusion. So here we go. Ladies and Gentlemen! I give you the top 10 most popular honeymoon destinations in India.

Lakshadweep

If you are a newly wed couple and want to start of your new life with passionate vigor in a relatively secluded and naturally beautiful locale then we recommend Lakshadweep islands. This place is full of life and that is why I promptly suggest tour packages to Lakshadweep to start ones married life. Life is in the blue waters, life is in the golden white sandy beaches, life is in the coconut groves and the starry night sky. Soak your souls in the tranquil beauty of nature and make the most of the romantic ambience.

Goa

The land of Sun sand and sea attracts honeymooners from all over the world. The best thing about Goa is the care free atmosphere where one can enjoy the most. It also provides some excellent activities that holiday makers look for like water sports on the beach, beach side parties, cruise rides and casinos, gourmet choices in food and drinks. There are secluded beaches, crowded beaches, beach resorts and shacks what ever you would prefer. Follow your heart and forget your worries. It's Goa.

Kovallam Kumarakom Munnar (Kerala)

They say its God's own country. It is definitely so if you consider nature and greenery to be his divine presence. If it's a tropical honeymoon you have dreamt of then Kerela is the place for you. Especially we recommend the beaches of Kovallam, houseboats on Kumarakom lagoons, and hill stations of Munnar. It is difficult to find a better combination. Each place has its own unique attraction that is can hold your interest for a long long time.

Nainital

Nanital promises a typical honeymoon in a romantic hill station. Pleasant weather, enchanting lakes, lovely scenery and cozy boat rides make it a highly preferred destination. We understand how much you would like a lazy stroll with your partner on a beautiful evening. Mall road of Nainital is just the place. Shop around the place for mementos. Cable car rides to the Snow view and a double ride on horseback would be pretty romantic idea in my opinion.

Darjeeling / Gangtok

Consider it a combo. Hardly anyone who goes to Darjeeling wants to miss Gangtok. Specialty will be the Tibetan influence. Gangtok and Dargeeling promise young couples green picturesque hills and bubbling waterfalls. Walking in the sloppy tea estates and terraced farms could be one of the most memorable things after this. Make a trip to the monasteries and temples to seek the divine blessings at the start of your new life. Other things to enjoy will the rivers, cable car rides, gardens and local food.

Ooty

One of my favs, Ooty promises you a very romantic honeymoon. There are lots of attractions in the town and around it. Tea plantations and thick Shola and eucalyptus forest rule the Nilgiri Mountains. Places you must visit include the Botanical Garden, Rose Garden, Ooty Lake, Dodabetta peak. Enjoy South Indian food and shop around for local handicrafts, essential oils etc. Best thing about Ooty is its weather. There are some very good locales and trekking routes that is enjoyable to every meter of the route and every second of your time.

Andaman and Nicobar Islands

The emerald islands are a superb choice as a honeymoon destination. If you have time I would recommend take the sea route. 2 and half days of pure pleasure for almost quarter the airfare and ten times more enjoyment. There are a lot of places in Andaman and Nicobar that you would like to visit. Three of the most romantic places I would suggest are Mount Harriet, Viper Island, Ross Island. You can enjoy waster sports in some places too. Only 7 % of the islands are inhabited so if you having some ideas for a romantic adventure then I can only say "please feel free" and consult the proper authorities beforehand.

Shimla

One of the most famous hill stations in India, Shimla has been attracting Honeymooners for quite a long time now. Most attractive feature of Shimla is its salubrious climate that is very conducive to for a romantic holiday. Among the things to visit and enjoy include Annandale, Chadwick Falls, Gurkha Castles, Tattapani, Viceregal Lodge, Chander Naun and Himalayan Aviary. There are quite a few old temples and few churches that could add some much needed blessings for your new beginning. You go on treks around Shimla or a walk along the famous Mall road and enjoy the crescent mountain ridge view. This place is very easily accessible and bustling with life almost all through the year. Be assured of high class hospitality with modern amenities.

Coorg

Coorg, also Known as Kodagu, is an excellent honeymoon destination in south India. The "little Scotland of India" justifies this comparison to a very large extent. Lush green, serene, scenic and devoid of city chaos Coorg is a virtual heaven for those seeking some private time in the lap of nature. There are some hill resorts that cater to the special needs of honeymoon travelers. Some of the suggested places to visit would include the Madikeri fort, Harangi Dam, Bhagamandala, Irupu Falls, minarets of Dodoveearaja, Abbi falls and many of the famous temples. Some people also like walking through the pepper vines and orange orchards of Coorg.

Srinagar

Capital of the paradise on earth welcomes you all throughout the year. Only for the security concerns are we mentioning it at the end of list else it deserves its place at top. Snow peaks stare at you from the horizon. Scenery is simply spell binding. The house boats of the Dal Lake are the biggest attraction and "Shikara" rides in the lake are a symbol of romance worldwide. Srinagar offers a base for numerous trekking routes and hosts a lot of adventurous activities that will add the to the entertainment packed honeymoon. Now if you are in Srinagar then you would definitely like to get your hands on world famous Kashmiri handicrafts too.

Here are some of my other lenses that I want to share with you. Hope they help you in some way or other.
