Beachfront dinner in Fiji under the stars, easily the most romantic night of our lives so far.
Pohutu Geyser erupting at Te Puia was such a powerful moment to witness together. Landing in Fiji after New Zealand's chill felt like stepping into a completely different, warmer dream.
Glowworm caves and the Fiji leg were the two standout memories from our honeymoon. New Zealand winter weather meant packing layers we hadn't quite planned for, worth mentioning to future travellers.
Te Puia's geyser and the Fiji beaches were the peaks for us. The one letdown was how thin the Christchurch stop felt, more a stopover than a proper visit, and we'd have traded it for another Rotorua night.
Waitomo Glowworm Caves felt like floating under a galaxy, best start to our honeymoon.
Combining New Zealand's dramatic landscapes with Fiji's beaches for our honeymoon was probably the best decision we made while planning. Akaroa Harbour cruise spotting dolphins was such a peaceful afternoon together. Winter in New Zealand meant a couple of our outdoor plans got cut short due to cold and early sunsets. Fiji more than made up for it with warm evenings and beachfront dinners under the stars.
