Honeymoons in Thailand
Activities for your honeymoon in Thailand
Many newlyweds are eager to make their honeymoon trip to Thailand and with good reason. The country has many amazing corners that must be visited during a honeymoon: dream beaches where white sand and turquoise water skilfully combine with coconut palms, deserted islands, hikes in the jungle...
Dream beaches & sunsets
About an hour and a half flight from Bangkok, Koh Lanta is one of the most popular islands for a honeymoon in Thailand. One can indulge in splendid seaside tours in the heart of its dream beaches and witness a magnificent sunset on the beach of Diamond Cliff, which is very quiet with an unobstructed view of the sea.
Looking for a more intimate beach for your honeymoon on the island of Koh Lanta? Then head to Bamboo Beach, a wild sandy beach surrounded by jungle and virtually free of construction. Take the time to soak up the romantic and intimate atmosphere of this almost deserted beach, lying on its warm sand. A piece of advice: the further away you get from the port and the north-western part of the island, the quieter the beaches become allowing you to enjoy your honeymoon in Thailand.
Treat yourself to a motorbike tour on the waterfront, so you can admire the island's landscapes more fully during this honeymoon! You'll ride along its beautiful beaches, stopping at any time to swim in their warm waters. Continue the adventure by visiting the old town of Koh Lanta, located in the east of the island. It offers a very romantic setting for the newlyweds on their honeymoon with its pretty traditional wooden houses on stilts. An ideal place to enjoy a seafood platter in one of its restaurants facing the vast expanse of blue sea. After this delicious meal, take a walk on the pier to admire the surrounding islands.
Festive streets
Phuket is a well-known destination for couples wishing to make their honeymoon in Thailand. The island is particularly aimed at night owls wishing to enjoy its lively atmosphere during their honeymoon. In the evening, stroll along Bangla Road where you will come across all sorts of festive bars and traditional dance performances.
During the day, spend moments bonding and exploring the sandy beaches together. There are plenty of water activities on offer, including towed buoys and parasailing. If you are looking for a more intimate atmosphere, pick the island of Koh Lone. If you are in the mood for a more vibrant one, Koh Phi Phi is your best bet. One thing is sure: there is something for everyone in the land of smiles!
Cultural tours
Complement your honeymoon in Thailand with a cultural tour by visiting Wat Chalong, one of the most visited sites in Phuket. It is also the largest Buddhist temple on the island, built in the 19th century.
See the magnificent red decorated pagoda and its incredible stupa, which legend says is home to a Buddha bone. Take the time to visit the interior, where you can admire the magnificent frescoes depicting this illustrious figure.
Finish your tour with a visit to the top-floor terrace to admire the view of Phuket Island. Just a short distance away, you can visit the Great Buddha Temple, which features an impressive 25-metre white marble statue. Here, too, you can enjoy a 360-degree view of the island and its heavenly beaches.
Please note: for your temple visits, remember to wear appropriate clothing that covers your legs and shoulders in order to respect the local customs.
