Leap years come but once every four years, giving us an extra date in the calendar. And, traditionally, 29 February is the only day when women can propose to men.

It is a pretty outdated tradition in this day and age, but some women will be taking the opportunity to make an honest man of their partner. So what are the proposal spots around the world that are guaranteed to make him say “yes”?

For the surfer dude

If your man likes nothing more than to pull on a wetsuit and hit the beach, why not make Surfers Paradise in Australia the spot for your proposal?

For the outdoorsy man

A lot of blokes love the outdoors, and there’s no better way to get back to nature than on safari. Kenya is a Big Five destination and makes the ideal proposal location.

For the sports fan

If your man is footie-mad (and he probably is), then a trip to Barcelona could be right up his street. A visit to the Nou Camp stadium to see one of the world’s greatest football teams will make him fall even more in love with you.

For the refined gentleman

Does your bloke enjoy the finer things in life? A trip to Dubai, with all its glamour and luxury, could be the ideal place to get him in the wedding mood.
