Definitely Bali. It is one of the top destination for honeymoon in the world, and the diving is amazing. Go to Nusa Lembongan in Bali for best dive site in Bali. I dived in Bali once, and it's simply amazing.

Plus April is not a holiday season yet so the price is very friendly and it is not crowded. The night life is amazing too if you are bored with nature and quiet. It has Kamasutra and Hard Rock Cafe and a lot of international hotels. Local hotels are also very good and very budget friendly. You can get more information in Bali vacation and Bali hotels

My fiance and I will be going on our honeymoon to Mauritius, it is an island east of Madagascar and the cost to stay at the resorts is very good! We are going in the last week of June, 2010.

We are staying at the Shandrani Hotel Resort and Spa. It is a 5* star hotel with an all-inclusive package (one of the first hotels to have one on the island).

In addition to unlimited meals, drinks, etc. the All-Inclusive deal includes UNLIMITED SCUBA DIVING!!!!

I told my fiance that we are going to go and get Scuba certified before we go on our honeymoon so we can take full advantage of that offer!!! It sounds amazing.

Use Google maps and search for Mauritius. The Shandrani Hotel is in the southeast of the island in Blue Bay. (Check the sources for more information on Mauritius itself)

Grand Cayman. Hands down. Here's why. First and foremost, warm water. Most divers go without any wetsuit at all. Some opt for shorties or "skins" but's that all.

There are numerous shore dives on the West Side of the island and up to the North Side. Small dive operations are located along the coast, and there's no need to bring a ton of gear with you (a problem with baggage constraints these days). My family packs snorkel stuff (good equipment with dive fins, etc.) and we rent the rest. I have a Diva BCD - nice for a girl! My favorite is a 60' mini wall with everything you could imagine in the way of coral and fish. Gorgeous!

On the East End and all over the island there are amazing wall dives. For recreational divers (I assume that's you, too) we go to 100' where things like giant barrel sponges abound.

On almost every dive now, we see green sea turtles and that's always a treat. For a really fun, different and easy dive, StingRay City is a kick. We go every time and it doesn't grow old.

In addition to the diving, there is a lot of entertainment and night spots all over the island. On the East End in particular, there are beautiful white-sand beaches for a stroll along the water or a swing in a hammock at one of the local resorts, gazing at the moon as its light glistens off the coconut palms. Just thought I'd throw that in! There are lots of other things to do as well, if you're killing time with surface intervals and what not. Like snorkeling, which is also awesome.

All the dive operations are top notch and especially keen on safety and conservation. The whole island and the immediate water around it are a marine preserve. I could go on and on about this. I've logged 132 dives, most of them in Grand Cayman where I was also certified. It's a diver's island. If you want to get away from it all, REALLY away from it all, try Little Cayman or Cayman Brac, but Grand Cayman has it all. Food's great, too!!

You'll have a wonderful time. This is a photo, taken from a dive boat, of an East End resort and its beach. They have great nighttime stuff, even if you're not a guest there.

Hmm.. I was reading the the coral reefs in the Gulf of Mexico are basically wiped out, so be careful, because all of those Caribbean islands are close by, and you might find yourself looking at dead zones.

Maui. The entire island can be circumnavigated by car in less than three hours, and it has a different landscape in each quadrant (arid, tropical, volcanic, grassland). It's a paradise within a paradise.

As for the SCUBA, there are trips to a crescent-shaped island about twenty minutes off the coast. The diving there is beginner level, well-equipped / well-trained staff - and the view is sublime. You have not seen color on this planet until you go diving on a coral reef.

Total cost for a week per couple in Maui and Hawaiian Island can easily be under $5k, even with high food costs. Look for the numerous bargain getaways, and do consider renting a condo; the cost can be comparable to a week in a hotel, but you get an entire house in a prime, private location.

Plus....you don't need a passport as with trips to Mexico or other countries.

Go to hawaii, what a experience it would be to take a trip within the states and take a cruise around the hawaiin islands without having to go through the trouble of passports. I would love to go personally, i never been there but im sure it is one nice time. IM not sure what type of diving offers they have but there has to be tons of that out there. If your interested in a cruise around the island let me know, I know someone at cruise brothers that can get u a great deal.

Thanks Mike !
