Most Isolated Tropical Retreats

It’s hard to find a person who has never dreamed about having his or her own tropical island. I mean, what can be better than just lying in the sun, with nothing around you but lush vegetation and crystal clear waters populated by exotic fish? Although it might be absolutely true that every man is an island, as the world is on the verge of becoming a global village, isolated islands are less and less easier to find. An isolated tropical island is the kind of destination that every recently married couple and every adventure traveler would die for. Fortunately, it is not the case, as the world seems to still have enough deserted beaches to accommodate them all. Here are some of the best:

Koh Phra Tongh,Thailand

Also known as the Golden Buddha Island, Koh Phra Tongh is the ultimate couples retreat. Nature lovers and all those travelers who’s only desire is to escape the madding crowd will have all the time in the world to explore the island’s 15 kilometers of white sand beaches. As scarcely inhabited as it might seem, Koh Phra Pong can accommodate both the budget traveler and the pretentious vacationer looking for some Thai-style pampering. Not to mention that the famous Surin Islands, whose waters are hiding Thailand’s best diving spots, are only within a few hours boat ride.

Mana and Tavewa, Fiji

This vast archipelago situated in the South Pacific ocean has no less than 106 uninhabited islands. If you really want to combine lush vegetation, perfect weather and deep-blue water with absolute solitude, than Fiji should be your no.1 choice. With a little bit of swimming and snorkeling, you’ll be able to get to all those picturesque islets and deserted beaches whose shallow waters make them inaccessible to boats and cruise ships. Try Mana Island or Tavewa, for a change.

Nihivatu, Indonesia

Despite its volcanic terrain and the fact that it’s home to the world’s most populated island, Indonesia can still satisfy even to most misanthropist traveler. At Nihiwatu in Southeast Sumba you’ll be able to experience much more that the typical dreamy honeymoon experience, as you will get the chance to discover the island’s unique culture and scenic countryside.

Costa Rica

Moving on the other side on the world, in the mysterious Caribbean Sea, we’ll discover that, despite the Caribbean’s ever increasing popularity, there are still some tropical beaches that have managed to escape the annual tourist overflow. A camper’s paradise, Costa Rica will amaze you with its diverse wildlife, beautiful mountains and isolated beaches (which, by the way, border the country on both the Pacific and the Caribbean side).

Negril, Jamaica

Adventure seekers, hedonists and tree-hugging hippies alike will find the Negril Resort in Jamaica as one of the most beautiful and liberal places in the world. If you want to enjoy the Jamaican hospitality, listen to some quality reggae music and ignore all the rules, Negril is the place to be. However, if you’re one of those persons who blushes easily, maybe Negril is not the right choice for you, as nudity here is almost a standard.
