Caribbean Honeymoon Basics: What to Know Before You Go
Warm turquoise water, white-sand beaches, and easygoing island life make the Caribbean one of the most popular honeymoon destinations in the world. Whether you’re planning an all-inclusive escape or a boutique, off-the-grid retreat, here are the essentials to help couples prepare.
Best Time to Visit the Caribbean
- Peak Season: December–April (sunny, dry, breezy—best weather, higher prices).
- Shoulder Season: May–June (great value, warm temps, fewer crowds).
- Hurricane Season: June–November (still very doable—just choose islands less affected like Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao, Barbados).
Entry Requirements
Most Caribbean destinations require:
- A valid passport (often valid for 6 months beyond travel dates).
- Return flight or onward travel proof.
- Tourist cards/visas for certain islands (Cuba, for example).
U.S. travelers can visit Puerto Rico & U.S. Virgin Islands without a passport.
Best Caribbean Islands for Honeymoon Vibes
- St. Lucia: Iconic Piton views + luxury resorts.
- Aruba: Dry, sunny, super reliable weather.
- Turks & Caicos: Unreal beaches, calm water, upscale resorts.
- Jamaica: All-inclusives, waterfalls, music, culture.
- Bora Bora-style vibes: Try St. Vincent & the Grenadines, Anguilla, or Barbados.
How to Search & Book Flights
- Start with Expedia. They gather most fares in one place so you don’t end up juggling a dozen browser tabs.
- Use flexible dates—even shifting your trip by one day can save enough for a sunset cocktail (or two).
- Check nearby airports if your island has more than one. Price differences can be surprisingly dramatic.
- Turn on price alerts so deals find you instead of the other way around.
- Review the baggage details. Low-cost fares often come with “surprises,” and not the fun kind.
