Florida has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, making it the perfect destination for a honeymoon road trip. This picturesque island is located off the coast of Dunedin, Florida which is just a hop, skip, and a jump away from Tampa Bay, St. Pete, or Clearwater.
So if you plan a stateside honeymoon in this area of Florida, it’s absolutely worth a day trip, or even multiple visits! For a daily entrance fee of $8, it’s an affordable day out to add to your honeymoon plans.
If you’re feeling extra romantic, you can even get married on Honeymoon Island! It’s a beautiful place to consider as a wedding destination– perhaps one of the best beach wedding locations in Florida!
The island is actually a very popular site for couples who want an eco-friendly natural wedding– so you may be lucky to catch a glimpse of a ceremony on your visit. Honeymoon Island overlooks the water facing Caladesi Island and Downtown Clearwater, making for a beautiful backdrop for a romantic wedding celebration.
The wedding venue on the island is all-inclusive, making for a worry-free event for couples who want to have a beach wedding. You can host both your ceremony and reception in one location, which makes planning a breeze.
Choose between two reception locations: a beautiful pavilion on the south end beach overlooking the Gulf of Mexico or a chic white tent complete with drapery walls and windows if you’d prefer to be on the sand. Either option is beautiful!
The on-site catering is provided by the Bon Appetit Group, which has been in business in the Clearwater area for 40 years. As a bonus, they are licensed to hold events after hours.
