We have a couple of places in mind: US Virgin Islands, Bahamas, Costa Rica. Where’s a safe and inexpensive, yet fun place to go on a honeymoon? We like adventure and the beach.

Catalina Island would be best. This is a beautiful island off the coast of Southern California. It’s a great place to go snorkel and swim. There are many majestic restaurants located on this island.You can take a ferry to get there from Long Beach.
I’m lucky enough to have been to all three places that you’ve mentioned and loved them all for different reasons. The Caribbean islands are beautiful and the sea/beaches stunning in parts, but they’re not inexpensive. It does depend on time of year though?
Out of your three definitely Costa Rica is the cheapest place to go, beware of travelling during their ‘green season’ (Approx May-Sep) when rainfall can be very heavy in certain parts. But then of course Hurricane season kicks in for the Caribbean too during that time – and lasts until Nov.
USVI’s and Bahamas are not as easy on the wallet as Costa Rica is, whilst there are options, you’ll have more of a choice in Costa Rica.
There are some all-inclusive resorts in Costa Rica too, if that’s your ‘thing’? I loved Costa Rica for the adventurous day trips that I could do -pretty much from all over CR – zip-lining, white water rafting, wildlife treks, staying in funky little huts etc.
Hope that helps a little…you may want to add Belize and Honduras to your list too? I’ve not actually been to those but heard fab. things about them, particularly Belize.
