Unforgettable destinations: Where to Travel to Paradise When You Crave an Escape

Have you wanted to travel to paradise? While everyone’s specific mental image of a paradisaical vacation location will differ, many envision palm trees, white sand and soft ocean breezes. When you’re ready to get away from it all, it can be difficult to choose a destination that will allow you to simply kick back and relax. Here are a few beachside areas that you might consider:

Tahiti

Traveling to a South Pacific island is the dream of many, and the French Polynesian island of Tahiti is one that has many features of a utopia. From its interesting culture to its undeniably romantic atmosphere, Tahiti can take you away from your troubles, literally and figuratively! Float in a warm water lagoon, lounge on the beach, go snorkeling to see breathtakingly beautiful marine life, or enjoy local delights like the Tahitian dances performed in grass skirts.

Key West

Are you looking for a vacation destination where you can park your car, enjoy a boat ride to an island, and not drive again until you are returned to your vehicle several days later? If so, Key West, Florida, might be just the place for you. Park in Fort Myers or Naples, Florida, both on the southwest coast of the state, and three hours later, you’ll be enjoying the palm tree-lined streets of the southernmost Key. Rent a bicycle or take the public transportation around the island, and revel in the tropical climate while sipping cocktails or watching the sunset. Don’t forget your flipflops!

In addition, you can take the kids to Summer Waves, which is an impressive water park, go on an eco-excursion, visit a center that cares for sea turtles, or go kayaking or fishing. There are also public festivals going on all year long that appeal to the oldest and youngest visitors!
