More than just picture-perfect beaches, Thailand is one of the top honeymoon destination for couples looking for a romantic getaway.  From a couples massage on the beach to elephant retreats, here are some of the most romantic things to do while in Thailand.

Couples Massage on the Beach
One of the most romantic, and relaxing, things to do in Thailand is get a couples massage on the beach.  What could be more romantic than you and your partner receiving a rejuvenating massage on the beach overlooking Thailand’s gorgeous waters?  Phuket is one of the best locations for a massage for two, as there are many options right along the beach.

Loi Krathong Floating Lantern Festival
The Loi Krathong festival takes place on the full moon of the 12th month of the Thai calendar, usually towards the end of November.  Loi Krathong translates to “floating banana trunk”, and many different cities around Thailand celebrate this Buddhist festival in a variety of ways, but most involve decorating banana leaves with flowers, candles and incense to make an offering.  It is said that Loi Krathong is a romantic thing for couples to make a wish for their continued happiness together.  Loi Krathong is usually accompanied by fireworks displays and in parts of northern Thailand, floating lanterns are launched into the sky in what makes for a beautiful, romantic sight.

Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort
The Golden Triangle refers to the remote bamboo jungle where Thailand, Laos and Burma meet.  Tucked away there is the Anantara elephant conservation camp and private resort, the perfect romantic activity for nature-loving couples on their honeymoon.  You and your partner will be able to take an elephant trek at sunset, try elephant yoga, bathe elephants, and have a private dinner alongside elephant calves.  The romantic resort is complete with a full spa and amazing accommodations overlooking all three countries.

Explore the Krabi Coastline
Another romantic thing to do on your honeymoon in Thailand is explore the countless private islands off of the coast of the Krabi Province in southern Thailand.  Explore secluded beaches, caves and untouched coral reef at this picturesque, romantic destination in Thailand.

Take a Romantic Cruise around Bangkok
Bangkok is a vibrant capital city where you can find nearly anything to do.  If you are looking for the most romantic thing to do in Thailand’s capital, you can hire a private boat to cruise around Bangkok’s Chao Phraya River and take in the sights of the city while dining on an intimate candlelit dinner.

Visit the Shrine of Love
The Trimurti Shrine in Bangkok is named after the three most powerful Hindu Gods, Brahma the creator, Vishnu the sustainer, and Siva the destroyer.  The Trimurti Shrine has gained the nickname “Shrine of Love” because of a local ritual and legend.  When you and your partner visit the Shrine of Love, you offer the gods nine red roses with nine incense and light two red candles for each partner, while reciting the prayer written on the stone in the shrine.  Making this offering is thought to bring you and your partner luck and happiness in love.
