According to the American Society of Travel Advisors’ “Hot Spots for Summer” survey, Hawaii was the most popular second honeymoon destination.

Hawaii was the most popular second honeymoon destination with 24.4% share of the total response. Because this destination can be more expensive than others, the surveyed travel agents said cost was less of a determining factor for couples taking a second honeymoon, compared to couples taking their first.
