Destination Wedding or Italian Honeymoon on the Tremiti Islands

There are few countries in the world as famous for “destination weddings” as Italy. Romantic settings and beautiful locations; ancient castles and villas and churches and wedding halls. The choices are endless. You may choose from one of the famous Italian destination wedding locations, such as Rome, Tuscany, Venice, the Italian Riviera, Lake Como, or Florence. Or you may be looking for something different – a remote location for your once-in-a-lifetime wedding and/or honeymoon.

One such location is a group of tiny islands, known as the Tremiti Islands, located near the “spur” in the boot region of Italy known as Puglia.

Destination Weddings or Italian Honeymoons in the Tremiti Islands 

The Tremiti Islands, otherwise known as the “pearls of the Apulian Adriatic Sea”, are a beautiful archipelago located about 12 miles off the coast. The Tremiti Island beaches are a favorite weekend retreat for Italians, but are rarely visited by tourists. Plan your wedding during the week and you will practically have the island to yourself. The islands can easily be reached from several nearby major towns on the mainland by hovercraft, ferries etc, and also by helicopter from Foggia’s airport. Numerous sailing companies operate ships which sail around the islands in summer, including a glass bottom pleasure boat, and many cruise lines include the Tremitis in their itinerary. The three larger islands, referred to as the green San Domino, the rough San Nicola and the wild Capraia/Caprara, provide a multitude of options for that one-of-a-kind destination wedding event or Italian honeymoon.
