The 10 Most Relaxing Vacations to Take in the USA
Taking a vacation to a sunny beach does not guarantee that you will have a peaceful time, especially if the beach is a popular, crowded holiday location in a tourist hotspot.
If you're looking for a less stressful vacation, here's a list of ten destinations in the
United States where you may relax and unwind.
1. The Outer Banks and Wild Horses of Carova Beach, North Carolina
Carova Beach is located near the state's northernmost tip, with no tourists to be found. The Outer Banks sections of sand are so desolate that you'll need a 4X4 vehicle to go around them.
Amazing photo opportunities abound as majestic wild Spanish mustangs roam the shore.
2. Fishing and Boat Cruises In Crater Lake, Oregon
This is one of the deepest lakes in the United States, formed by a meteor strike, and is recognized for its stunning blue color and abundance of rainbow trout.
You can go on a volcano boat trip, camp and trek, or rest at the Crater Lake Lodge, which was built in the 1920s.
3. Shipwrecks and Turtles in Dry Tortugas, Florida
Dry Tortugas is a 70-mile-long island off the coast of Key West. The park is famed for its beautiful Fort Jefferson, picturesque blue water, exceptional coral reefs, and marine life, and is only accessible by boat or seaplane.
It is a terrific opportunity for world-class snorkeling, with scores of shipwrecks littering the coastline, allowing you to see turtles and a variety of tropical fish.
4. Fishing and Sailing on Flathead Lake, Montana
Flathead Lake, the biggest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, is a boating and fishing paradise. Camping and exploring the surrounding Flathead Indian Reservation are just two of the many options.
You can stay at the Flathead Lake Lodge if you don't want to rough it.
5. Camping and Kayaking along Olympic Coast Beaches, Washington
The Olympic Coast Beaches offer clean swimming, as well as bird watching, kayaking, and hiking, along 73 miles of lovely beaches. If "glamping" is more your style, there are a few rustic seaside resorts, such as the rustic Kalaloch Lodge in Olympic National Park.
6. Agritourism and Gambling in the Poconos, Pennsylvania
With tacky old hotels and casinos, as well as a NASCAR track, the Poconos is a campy, old-fashioned town. It is, however, relatively reasonable when compared to most wellness resorts, and includes hotels with heart-shaped spas as well as an agritourism trail with brewers and wineries.
7. Scenic Drives and Wine Tasting in Santa Barbara Wine Country, California
Traditionally an escape from smoggy Los Angeles and known for being the location for the movie Sideways, the hilly landscape of Santa Barbara wine country offers a fun scenic road trip. Expect to see horse ranchers and many wineries with five-star dining and tasting rooms. Just don’t drive or ride horses while inebriated.
8. Boating and camping at Sebago Lake, Maine
Sebago Lake is a big, frigid lake with hundreds of islets and dozens of spots where you can pitch a tent and claim a small beach. Migos Lodge, a luxurious cabin getaway with tennis courts, is a great way to avoid the tourists along Maine's coast while still enjoying lobster.
9. Horseback Riding and Ski Resorts in Stowe, Vermont
Stowe is one of the friendliest cities in New England, with rivers, covered bridges, mountains, horseback riding, spas, farmer's markets, and modern breweries that will transport you back to pre-Covid times.
Skiing, lavish Thanksgiving feasts, and an annual Christmas tree lighting are all available in the winter.
10. Picnics and Wine Tasting in Virginia Wine Country, Virginia
From the Chesapeake Bay to the Blue Ridge, Virginia is known for its wine. Because the region's Chardonnay viticulture is only 20 years old, this is not a crowded tour.
Stop along the route for a romantic date with nature and a bottle of wine by wandering to nearby creeks and ponds.
These unusual destinations can help you get away, discover some quiet, and melt away tension, whether you choose to rough it or stay in a resort.
