Diving, snorkeling, bird watching, deep sea fishing, hiking and golf are popular pastimes that delight active couples. There are no skyscrapers or high rises. Pristine rain forests, seabird sanctuaries, turtle breeding grounds and wonderful reefs are just of few of the things you can explore together.

The feeling is barefoot but the amenities are state-of-the-art. All the ingredients for enchanted, low-key honeymoon happiness are right here!
