Caribbean out, Pacific in for honeymooners due to Zika
The spread of the Zika virus is not putting a damper on honeymoon planning.
While the Caribbean has long been a favorite honeymoon hotspot, brides and grooms-to-be are opting to play it safe by looking elsewhere.
“There’s been a huge spike in our Pacific destinations,” said Patty DeRoo, owner of Crystal Lake Travel Agency, Inc.
These days, Hawaii, Alaska and Tahiti are some of the more popular vacation landing-places for newlyweds.
DeRoo recommends Hawaii for honeymooners “who want to get out and experience the destination.”
“It’s beautiful and absolutely a bucket list kind of place,” she said. “There’s hiking, snorkeling, waterfalls, kayaking. All of that is available out there for your outdoor enthusiasts.”
Those planning their honeymoon trips can get help with all their accommodations through Crystal Lake Travel Agency.
“We do anything from airline tickets to all-inclusive packages to airport transfers and hotel accommodations,” DeRoo said.
The agency will also take care of arranging for excursions.
“We handle it all,” DeRoo said.
