5 Destinations That Should Be on Every Adventurous Couple’s Bucket List
Koh Lanta, Thailand
If you and your sweetheart have been stressed out and need to unwind, a trip to the gorgeous islands of Thailand will certainly do the trick. There are many different islands in Thailand, some filled with drunken partying backpackers, others delightfully remote and peaceful — but Koh Lanta is a great balance.
It’s quiet and laid-back enough to be romantic, so you won’t be kept up by the booming music of parties on the beach. But there are also plenty of things to do, places to eat and choices for accommodation.
Plus, you’ll get great value for your money here. For the price of a budget motel back home you can treat yourself to a private bungalow on the beach with a pool.
Hire a moped and go explore some of the more secluded beaches, take a hike to a waterfall, or go on a boat tour and spend the day kayaking and snorkeling around the limestone rock formations. Here are a few more unforgettable things to do in Koh Lanta.

This list of top things to see and do in the Algarve will give you more ideas.
