1. Bora Bora, French Polynesia

This paradise of pure white-sand beaches and azure waters set against a backdrop of majestic green peaks didn’t earn its reputation as the “Island of Romance” for nothing. It’s also a favorite among celeb couples (including Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn) for its secluded atmosphere, setting it apart from nearby islands.

2. Jimbaran Beach, Bali, Indonesia

Calm waters and silky white sands are second only to its technicolor sunsets.

3. Koh Kood, Thailand

With beaches made for lazing, this tiny island surrounded by crystal-clear seas in the Gulf of Thailand is an up-and-coming destination. Less developed and less crowded than the other islands, it’s the perfect combination of otherworldly beauty and serenity.

4. Whitehaven Beach, Whitsunday Islands, Australia

From its glistening pure silica sand (a geological phenomenon) to the shimmering aqua seas, the wonderfully natural and totally undeveloped Whitehaven Beach is Australia’s most awe-inspiring and idyllic strip.

Costa Smeralda, Sardinia, Italy

Named in tribute to the sparkling emerald waters enveloping its crescent-shaped, white sandy beaches, Costa Smeralda is renowned for its glamour and sophistication. This place is considered as the Europe’s most exclusive honeymoon spots.

North Island, Seychelles

The uninhabited-until-only-recently North Island in the Seychelles is an unspoiled tropical paradise — a modern-day Eden — that while pricey, is unrivaled in its sheer beauty and exclusivity. Located in the western Indian Ocean, the Seychelles are comprised of 115 granite and coral islands. Truly eco-savvy honeymooners will adore North Island in particular; accessible only by helicopter, the idyllic island is both a wildlife sanctuary and resort.

The winner will receive an all-expense paid bridal shower at Manhattan’s famed SD26 Restaurant and Wine Bar, courtesy of the exclusive New York-based concierge service.
