African Honeymoons
African honeymoons are becoming increasingly popular with newlyweds across the world as there is so much on offer and the experience is completely unique and exotic. When choosing the right location for your African honeymoon things can get a little tricky, as you know Africa is not exactly the smallest continent on the globe. This is why I have compiled a top 5 list of the best places to spend your African honeymoon. Here they are:
1. The Kruger National Park, South Africa – This vast national park on the border of Mozambique and Zimbabwe has been a protected area for over a hundred years and has allowed for the wild life to flourish. The Big Five can be found in abundance as well as amazing bird life and flora and fauna. Another great thing about the Kruger National Park is that there is accommodation to suit all budgets; from standard chalets with on suite bathrooms and kitchenettes to the ultimate in luxury safari lodges – it can all be found here. African honeymoons don’t get much better than this.
2. Mozambique – Mozambique has emerged as a jewel along the Southern African coastline. With its crystal clear azure waters, powder white sandy beaches and tropical islands, this is paradise found. My favourite place in Mozambique is definitely Matemo Island, a private island in the Quirimbus National Park, hypnotic with beauty. In Mozambique African honeymoons just got tropical.
3. Lake Malawi, Malawi – This Lake’s clear blue tropical waters teem with more tropical fish than any other lake in the world. The beautiful accommodations on offer on the Lake will ensure you have the most memorable honeymoon imaginable.
4. Zambia – Zambia has an excellent array of national parks packed with animals and birds. Also in Zambia you will find the Victoria Falls and the Zambezi River, awe inspiring attractions that you simply must check out if you visit. I don’t know if it’s the intoxicating beauty of the scenery or the laid back nature of the local peoples but Zambia really will have you coming back time and time again… so go on and get drawn in on your African honeymoon.
5. Cape Town, South Africa – Table Mountain creates an amazing backdrop to this culturally rich city at the tip of Africa. Cape Town has plenty to offer honeymooners and there are plenty of day trips out from the city to fill your first days as man and wife with some adventure. So whether you stay in a romantic cottage on a wine farm, at the historic Mount Nelson Hotel or in a small intimate boutique hotel in the city centre or near the beach, the experience Cape Town offers its guests is truly unforgettable.
