Whether you are looking for a seaside destination or a mountain destination, you have it all here in South India. With a distinctive culture in each state, the Southern part of India is an amalgamation of myriad experiences. Here are the top honeymoon destinations in South India for your consideration.Munnar

Kerala’s wonder does not stop at the backwaters, but extends to its verdant hills as well, and Munnar is definitely the most interesting of all. Munnar is unlike your North Indian hills; it is sans traffic, noise, and the chaos. Located on the Western Ghats, its rolling hills make a statement of purity. Known for its tea plantations, Munnar gives couples and tourists a real taste of beauty. Here you will find Rajamalai-Eravikulam National Park, and many other such attractions. Perfect for your honeymoon, Munnar evokes a sense of love and romanticism.

The quintessential Kerala experience comes full circle here at Alleppey, as the backwaters excite, allure, and enthral tourists. This is all about smooth sailing through the waters and seeking bliss in nature. Take up a houseboat for yourselves and enjoy living off the grid, as that is exactly what you need for your honeymoon. Often dubbed as “Venice of the East,” Alleppey is a graceful place of immense wonder, and definitely the perfect setting for that perfect honeymoon. All you have to do is sail away in the houseboats with your spouse in your arms and enjoy nature’s allure; definitely one of the best honeymoon destinations in South India.
Coorg

Often referred to as the Scotland of India, Coorg is definitely one of the best places in South India for honeymoon. Coorg is blessed with immaculate plantations and beautiful natural vistas, accompanied by tourist resorts and unparalleled romance. What more could you possibly want from a honeymoon destination? Located in the state of Karnataka, Coorg is every bit fascinating and every bit romantic. If you are going for your honeymoon here, then try to avoid weekends because it gets packed with weekenders from Bengaluru. The long winding roads and cool climate presents tourists with splendid walks, so do embark.
Lakshwadeep Islands

Nothing beats virgin sea beaches, pristine jungles, and the unspoilt beauty of Lakshwadeep Islands. This is by far one of the best places in South India for honeymoon, and you will know the reason when you visit. A place where you will not be disturbed, and you will find yourself in utmost peacefulness, Lakshwadeep Islands definitely evoke a sense of romanticism. You have some fascinating underwater attractions, along with the romantic opportunity to explore the surrounding areas. If you and your better half are interesting in adventure aquatic sports, then this is a great place.
Pondicherry

A seductive little place that croons in French, Pondicherry is an astonishing destination. The city was under the French rule until 1954, and this makes it a destination that is both distinctively French and South Indian. You will still find people speaking French here, while few others speak in English with a French accent. The city has its very own beach, along with museums and more. The Old French Quarter is an exceedingly romantic place with sparkling clean roads and old colonial houses. All of this makes Pondicherry a good destination that seldom fails to impress. For honeymooners this could be a romantic destination of beauty.
