What are some affordable honeymoon destinations?

For a budget friendly honeymoon, think about destinations where your money goes further without sacrificing romance. The Algarve in Portugal has golden beaches, quiet villages and excellent seafood. The Greek islands, especially the less famous ones, offer beautiful views and relaxed pace. Turkey's Aegean coast combines history, warm sea and very reasonable prices for food and accommodation.

Closer to home, the Welsh coast and the Scottish Highlands give you dramatic landscapes, cosy inns and no flights needed. You can spend your days walking, visiting castles or simply enjoying long breakfasts. Eastern Europe is another option, with places like the Croatian coast or the Polish lakes offering charm and value.

To keep costs down, travel midweek, book early, and consider self catering rather than a full board hotel. Look for destinations with free or cheap activities, like hiking, swimming or exploring old towns. Your honeymoon is about being together, not about spending a fortune. A simple cottage by the sea can feel just as special as a five star resort.
