Do an Oregon coast road trip? That's been on our to-do list for a couple years now. It's supposed to be gorgeous!
Oregon Coast is amazing! or jump on a plane to seattle and take a ferry ride to one of the islands out here. they are fantastic and you can find such cute little cabin to rent right on the ocean.
@Julesb81: Oh yeah, Whidbey island (outside of Seattle) is pretty cool too. Beautiful little bed and breakfast in a pretty sea-side town.
I'd suggest Vegas & the Grand Canyon, but it'll be pretty hot in June. We went to Mt. Hood, OR one August for a jazzfest & it was really nice. Seattle could be nice as well. San Fran is one of my very favorite places & my next recommendation would've been Monterey... If you don't mind dry heat, there is always Sedona, AZ for hiking and relaxing spa treatments?
@SapphireSun: I was stationed at Whidbey Island back when I was in the navy :) Great suggestion, the San Juan Islands are so romantic. I lived in Oak Harbor and Anacortes, lots of exploring, hiking, and overall great place for a couple!
I would also suggest the Oregon coast. It is amazing.
If you have your passport, Vancouver BC?
sedona is beautiful. lots of hiking and scenic drives and the mcdonalds there is rather amusing (its got terquise arches instead of gold) we got engaged there in august (peak heat seson for az) and it was not terribly hot. it was a little warm but nothing insane.
Thank you for all the suggestions! I have actually never been to Oregon so I think I am going to look into it more.
@dodgercpkl - Love the photos! Looks like a beautiful place to visit!
I am getting married in california and looking for some good honeymoon ideas. I love bed and breakfests!!!
How about Catalina Island? It is about 25 miles off the coast of Southern California and has a very Mediterranean feel to it. You can take a fast boat, slow boat, or helicopter from the Long Beach area and it takes anywhere from 20 minutes to 1 hour to get there. There are little shops, restaurants, and really cute hotels, plus lots of options for hiking or snorkeling if thats your cup of tea. It's definitely not a big place, but really relaxing and fun.
How about Santa Barbara? It's really beautiful and lots to do!
You've probably been there, but just thought I'd throw out Big Sur as a suggestion since it's a pretty beautiful drive without having to do a full day down to Santa Barbara. There's a great resort up there called the Ventana Inn that's very secluded and has a great spa. Would be great for a relaxed, romantic honeymoon.
I also highly recommend Yosemite national park!!!!!!! We were almost going to get married there.
@FireflyT: I'm so jealous. My dream is to travel down the west coast... Though we may do it on our 1st year anniversary so it's something to look forward to.
We're planning a west coast vacation this summer but it seems you've already been to all the places on my list. Those Oregon photos make me want to move my trip north!
I am getting married up in Tahoe, but it is also an amazing honeymoon destination!
email me at keeptahoeblue80@gmail.com is you would litk suggestions on where to stay, what to do, etc. It is incredibley romantic!
Catalina is also great! Hamilton Cove would be agreat place to stay.
Yosemite is always my choice in June. You could combine it w/ Sequoia NP.
Amador county is a fun alternative to Napa for wine tasting.
Rent a convertible rive down the 1 past Big Sur to Hearst Castle (Seriously!), SLO, and Santa Barbara. Lots of good wine tasting and B&B's in the area. (Paso Robles) It's a super romantic area and not as busy as the parks or Napa.
We went to Palm Spring and I am obsessed. Just obsessed. Since it's off-season in June, you can get some pretty amazing rates too.

Hi there :)
Our wedding is in 3 months! Luckily a lot of the wedding details are now worked out (mostly in the last week or two) and we are now looking for ideas for a Honeymoon. We live near San Francisco and would like to do something fun we don't do all the time. We go to SF weekly, Napa every two months or so and we've also been to Santa Cruz/Monterey and Disneyland many times. We are going to San Diego the month after our wedding. So I am trying to think of something else we could do.
Since we only have 5 days for our honeymoon I wanted to limit it to places within a 2 hour plane ride or so. Places within driving distance are ok too. Thanks for any suggestions!
