Istria, one of the eight most romantic places in the world, has been declared the ideal destination for a second honeymoon!

Istria, one of the eight most romantic places in the world, has been declared the ideal destination for a second honeymoon!

The list of top travel destinations for couples, found on the portal Next Avenue, was made by Abbie Kozolchyk, a renowned author of travels guides, from New York.  The list especially caters to active, older people in their golden years. She was inspired by her stay on the Istrian Peninsula in May of last year when she decided that Istria  “could very well carry the title of the most romantic place on Earth“.

“From its small medieval towns located on foothills to the coast of the clear turquoise blue sea, it is easily accessible to travellers, yet free of crowds”, says Abbie.  She recommends the towns of Grožnjan and Motovun, and the fresh fish, olive oil and truffles, all which in her opinion can hold their own in comparison to the same Italian products.

When going on a second honeymoon, says Kozolchyk, people pay more attention to the destination; they have more time and money and can therefore start off on their dream trip. Besides Istria, she also considers Kenya, Borneo, Cancun, northwest India, the luxurious Caribbean destination of Turks and Caicos, and the Antarctic, as being the most romantic places.
