Connected by one of Italy’s most scenic roads, the Amalfi Coast is a mountainous stretch of coastline with dramatic cliff faces dropping down to cobalt blue waters.

A string of five centuries-old seaside fishing villages built within the cliffs spilling down to the water’s edge, Cinque Terre sits along a gorgeous stretch of serrated coastline. It’s a place to enjoy romantic walks on scenic trails or simply sip the local wine while soaking up some of the world’s most incredible views.
The most famous of Italy’s many lakes, Lake Como offers glamour and striking natural beauty. Its glistening waters enjoy a backdrop of the snow-dusted Italian Alps while postcard-perfect villages are strewn along the shores.

There is no bad time for an Italian honeymoon, but if you want to avoid the crowds and ensure time for tranquil seclusion together while enjoying mild weather, spring and early fall are ideal. In April, May, June, September, and October it won’t be too hot or too cold for comfortable sightseeing. Spring is a wonderful time for capturing photos around the country, with flowers in full bloom, while the early autumn season means the water will still be warm enough for coastal honeymooners to enjoy serene swims and vibrant foliage highlights the already dazzling scenes.
