For couples, just about any cruise lends itself to romance;
what’s more romantic than a cozy stateroom on a ship where all the cooking and
cleaning is done for you? Really, all you need to do is hold hands in
side-by-side deck chairs while the sunsets. Or, take an after-dinner stroll to
watch the moon dancing on the water. Just thinking about it makes us want to
board a ship with someone we love.
While cruises are romantic by nature, you can amp up the
passion with your choice of destination. Here are some that we think are among
the most romantic you can choose.
·
Hawaii. It’s simply one of the most beautiful
places on Earth, a postcard-perfect, beachy haven for couples. Love is
everywhere in the islands, and a cruise lets you visit more than one.
·
Paris. Cruise the River Seine to the City of
Light, where l’amour blooms. Many river cruises that call on Paris also sail in
Burgundy and Provence, which are romantic, too.
·
French Polynesia. The lush tropical beauty and
clear blue water of islands like Tahiti and Bora Bora make this region perfect
for couples seeking to fall in love all over again.
·
Greek Isles. Whitewashed buildings with
blue-painted roofs and white sand beaches along turquoise water make the Greek
Isles a first-class romantic cruise destination.
·
Bermuda. The pink sand beaches are a favorite
for couples because of its exotic nature. Add in an excursion to Paget Marsh
Nature Reserve to stroll Lover’s Lane, a serene trail through a cedar forest.
·
Dubrovnik. Croatia’s “Pearl of the Adriatic”
features a lovely Old Town where you can stroll together under the moonlight.
You might also visit the romantic, watery city of Venice on the same cruise.
·
Capri. There are lots of ports where one can
discover romance during a cruise of Italy’s western coast (Rome, anyone?), but
this island stands out with its dramatic beauty. For some quiet time, hire a
private boat for a few hours.
·
Cabo San Lucas. Lover’s Beach, reachable only by
water, is positioned where the Pacific meets the Sea of Cortez and sheltered by
Cabo’s famous stone arch.
·
Belize. A stop on many Western Caribbean
cruises, Belize offers adventurous excursions. Go snorkeling, diving,
ziplining, or cave tubing – hand-in-hand, of course.
