By Ryan Burden

Planning your Caribbean honeymoon should not be as complex as planning your wedding ... Right! However, with so many enticing options, where do you start? Well, start here of course and let me help you discover the best of the best honeymoon destinations.

Certainly you are looking for a romantic adventure where you will experience many 'first time' events together, and every couple wants something a little different. I had a fabulous Caribbean honeymoon and have taken some great trips in my lifetime. Check out these top picks and what makes them special. One of them is perfect for that memorable trip!

Barbados

Barbados is gorgeous, and you will definitely leave feeling spoiled. Stay at the secluded 110-year-old Crane Hotel for nostalgic romance or at the Peach and Quiet for a budget honeymoon. It is the adventure couples dream with clear blue waters for scuba divers, windsurfers, and sightseeing from the air in a helicopter or underwater in a mini-sub. You will find decent beaches here, but not the best of the bunch.

Turks and Caicos

If you like small, secluded luxury hotels with excellent spas and great restaurants, then you will love it here on any of the eight inhabited islands. The uncrowded beaches are fabulous. You may even end up sunbathing next to a movie star. Go horseback riding, sail to one of the many deserted islands and play 'Lost' for the day, see flocks of flamingos or thousands of iguanas on Little Water Cay. The scuba diving and snorkeling are phenomenal, as is the deep-sea fishing and bone fishing. Kite-boarding, windsurfing, and other water sports are also popular. A definite favorite for a perfect beach honeymoon vacation!

St. Lucia

This island is straight out of a fairytale, with lush tropical scenery and twin mountain peaks covered in rain forest serenity. The locals are very friendly, and seeing the St. Lucia Soufriere Volcano from the inside will leave you in awe. Taking a day to tour the island on horseback is one of the major reasons this is in the top ten places to take a Caribbean honeymoon. Many hotels really cater to honeymooners with all-inclusive packages. Go in May and you will catch the Jazz Festival.

Dominican Republic

This is a great choice for a budget honeymoon - with beautiful beaches and lots to offer. Taking a catamaran ride to enchanting Saona Island is just one of the ways to enjoy this romantic getaway. Add a visit to the 600-acre Ecological Park enjoying a dozen blue lagoons, and this is nothing short of a romantic getaway in heaven.

Martinique

Martinique is a great romantic getaway, yet for some reason it is still underrated compared to the rest here. Inhale the French culture along with the tantalizing scents of the beautiful flowers that consume the entire island. Take a canopy tour and go hiking in the rain forest canyons before getting a taste of superb Creole cuisine, going shopping, and sampling the lively nightlife.

Anguilla

When people choose a Caribbean honeymoon, this island is overlooked more times than not. I have no idea why, because it is built for couples to enjoy. You will not find much commercialization here, the nightlife is low-key, and water sports are not a big draw. However, you will have dozens of fantastic beaches to explore, and the fine dining is possibly the best in all the Caribbean.

British Virgin Islands (BVI)

You have several islands to choose from, with many hotel options for a secluded romantic retreat. Ride a yacht to the famous Baths of Virgin Gorda or find a hidden beach for you and your loved to enjoy all alone. The beach bars on Jost Van Dyke are a fun hangout popular with sailors.

US Virgin Islands (USVI)

All beautiful areas here, the fact that they are all considered part of the United States makes things more convenient. St. John has the best beaches and diving, while St. Thomas boasts excellent dining and shopping. Of course, St. Croix is cheaper and has casinos, so you pick or hop around. The variety of USVI makes it one of the best honeymoon destinations.

Jamaica

I absolutely love Ocho Rios. Dunn's River Falls has to be the coolest adventure climb on any island. Climb the waterfall and jump back down into the water ... amazing! Horseback riding on the beach, a little reggae music and rum at sunset, and you have a nice romantic getaway that is great for a budget honeymoon.

Cayman Islands

If you want to take a romantic Caribbean honeymoon and still feel like you are back home, this is the closest thing you will come across. With many American themes, you will not feel too far away, but taking in some of the best snorkeling and scuba diving in the Caribbean will be breathtaking. If you are into shopping and eating well, then the Caymans must be a top pick for your Caribbean honeymoon.

Now that you have some good ideas, you just have to decide which one is the best honeymoon destination for you. Hopefully, this list has got you excited and helped narrow down your choices. Good luck and have fun.

Whichever one you choose, I hope you have a wonderful wedding and a romantic honeymoon!
