I'm getting married in August, and we will be setting off for our honeymoon from Dubai.

Basically, we want to get our Padi Diving course certs & just chill too! We'll have 7 days.

Where would you recommend in September (we are planning for the second week in September to travel)? Maldives, Seychelles...? Which travel company?

Just looking for ideas really.

Thank you to all you lovely BE'ers!!
FF - try and get 2 honeymoons out of him, (btw you can actually do your PADI Diving in Dubai) then get yourself to Zighy Bay as I have heard this place is mean to be fantastic, pure relaxation.....and I believe if you do some searching you can actually go diving in oman as they have dive site, enjoy whereever you go. I do also back up the Maldives suggestions, I went there for 4 days last year and it is stunning...

We stayed in town at Moonlight Bay in town. But my nephew got married that week too and the ceremony was at his in-laws (their property adjoins cable beach) and then we walked to the resort for the reception. Seafood banquet, ice cold beer and bubbly - lovely.......

anyway, how about thailand for honeymoon...loads of diving there and fabulous places to stay...

isn't thailand a little too unstable at the moment? would hate to hear of someone's honeymoon plans spoilt by another sit-in at the airport.

Not sure if this will help you, but 1 week Manhattan then straight on to 1 week in log cabin in the Scottish highlands miles from anywhere...

It was a great combination of the best city in the world followed by the best scenery in the world... not much beach relaxing though, we live in Dubai so no need for that!

(*sigh* it's 40 fing degrees here so any talk of an ice cold beer is bloody torture...)

is moonlight bay where you can see the "stairway to heaven" phenomenon from? from memory there was a fantastic fish & chip place out on the point too.

I'm not much help as I spent my honeymoon in St Wolfgang in Austria - it was fabulous, but don't think you would want to do your diving course there as the lake will be freezing.
