8 Exotic Islands for an Unforgettable Muslim Honeymoon

12/05/2016 //  by Muslim Travel Girl//  6 Comments

Oh that Muslim Friendly honeymoon! The one vacation that many Muslim couples can spend thousands of pounds to make super exciting and super luxurious. Well, I thought I give you a helping hand and make the choices you have even more difficult.

I have written before about the best countries but I thought, I am a beach girl and I love exotic islands. Bora Bora is on my bucket list for sure but -to be honest not sure who I am kidding- All the islands below are definitely my bucket list.

The good thing is that all of these islands have international chains so finding a good deal is not impossible. It just requires extra planning. You can also check our my favourite websites that I use for cheap hotels.

An island country  in the South Pacific Ocean, Fiji, is considered one of the most exotic destinations, not only for families  but for honeymooners too! Mostly known for the crystal clear blue seas and the white sandy beaches it’s a perfect place to go and celebrate a marriage. Scuba diving is a common activity there as it has many coral reefs, so if you and your partner are into that, you could try it! The top attractions there are Kula Eco Park in Sigatoka, the Fiji Museum in Suva and Sabeto Hot Springs and Mud Pool.

If  on the other hand you want to pay in cash here is a list of the top 10 hotels according to TripAdvisor.

Bora bora

Yay on my bucket list! If you can’t afford to pay $1000 a night, then you should definitely start paying attention to the IHG promotions. Bora Bora is an island in the western part of the Society Islands of French Polynesia in the Pacific ocean. Bora bora is famous with the over the water bungalows varying from cheap to extra luxurious. The main activities in Bora Bora are snorkeling and scuba diving, where many species of sharks and rays can be found. While there you could visit the world’s most perfect place to relax and a perfect private escape Motu Tapu.

If you are looking for some beautiful overwater villas then you are in the right place. Find out the best ones here.

Hawaii

We all know about Hawaii. It’s one of the American States, but it’s in Oceania. If you are not fond of crowded seasons you should avoid the major holidays, especially in the winter months. The main attractions are the Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park, the ʻIolani Palace, U.S.S. Arizona Memorial and the Manoa Falls. There are plenty of beautiful resorts to choose from and I think this will be the most difficult part.

    Salaam!

    Love your blog, very informative!

    Just wondering what country would be best to visit after the Seychelles as a second part to a honeymoon, in terms of proximity and price?

    Jazakallah,

      You can either go for Mauritius or Maldives as they are both close to them. Or you can visit some of the Seychelles islands

    Awesome post. ..I do disagree with you on Hawaii. Halal chicken-beef is hard to find and even the seafood is shared with pork, which limitshould your diet. I’m intrigued with Zanzibar though.
