Caribbean Vacations for Couples: 5 Places to Visit

Most couples choose Caribbean resorts because they want to chill on white-sand beaches and dive into the mesmerizing turquoise water. It attracts tourists from all over the world, but it’s not the only thing that Caribbeans have to offer. Vibrant colors, authentic culture, unique cuisine, and various activities that range from snorkeling to hiking an active volcano make these destinations the top choice.

If you are considering a destination for your honeymoon, we highly encourage you to take a look at Aruba. This small Caribbean island is home to one of the best-rated all-inclusive hotels and the most magnificent beaches. Here, you can enjoy the privacy and high-notch customer service.

Aruba is a culturally diverse island, and nearly 100 different nationalities reside here. The island’s cuisine is a blend of traditional Dutch, Spanish, African, and Asian meals. So, Aruba is the right place to go if you and your partner are looking for new gastronomical experiences.

Islands of Belize

Are you an adventurous couple? Visit one of the uninhabited islands of Belize. Pack some food, water, a hammock, snorkeling equipment, swimsuits, and sunscreen, and live on the island in Robinson-Crusoe style for a few days. It’s a unique experience that will allow you to enjoy the beauty of the place and your partner’s company. Only two of you will be on the island, so you can do whatever you want, and no one will disturb you.

Martinique

Martinique is one of the best choices for LGBTQ+ couples, transgender people in particular, because of its legislation. It’s one of a few countries in the Caribbean that allow legal gender changes. Most countries of the region have no legal recognition of transgender people’s affirmed gender, and some countries still criminalize same-sex relationships.

This Caribbean island welcomes couples and solo travelers. If you travel alone, you can use a transgender dating app to find someone to spend your vacation with. Stunning beaches with beautiful spots for snorkeling will amaze you. You will see  hundreds of red, blue, green, and yellow fishes and starfishes and even get a chance to swim along with sea turtles.

Guatemala 

If you don’t want to spend all your holidays in one place and want to explore different locations and activities, come to Guatemala. Here, you can go on an overnight hike to the Acatenango volcano and see the most magnificent sunrise in your life. Then you can go to Antigua, an old capital of Guatemala, and enjoy the coziness of this small, vibrant city and try delicious local food like Pepián de pollo (chicken stew) and Jocón (shredded beef stew).

After that, you can go to the oceanside and spend a day or two surfing and relaxing on black sand volcanic beaches. Next, you can explore Tikal, the ruin of an ancient Mayan city. And you can end your vacation in the Caribbean part of the country, chilling on a white-sand beach. 

Mexico

The Caribbean part of Mexico is absolutely stunning. You can find one of the longest white-sand beaches and all-inclusive resorts here. Also, you can explore magnificent cenotes of three types: open (open-air caves), semi-open, and closed. Some of the most beautiful are Azul, Jardin del Eden, Sac Actun, Taak Bi Ha, Zacil-Ha, El Pit, and Gran Cenote. The good news is that some of these cenotes are accessible by public transport, so you don’t need to book a tour and can travel by yourself.

Wrapping Up

Every couple is different. Some people prefer more relaxed vacations, while others are more eager for adventures. Choose a destination that meets your preferences and enjoy the Caribbean in all its pure beauty.
