Harbor Island, Bahamas
Dreaming of a traditional beach vacation? Harbor Island, Bahamas, might be just what you need. The famous Pink Sand Beach stretches for miles and has been awarded multiple beach awards over the years. In addition to lounging, the snorkeling Harbor Island is some of the best in the world due to the calm, clear waters. An added bonus? The Bahamas are relatively easy to get to and offer some of the best all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean.
Harbor Island, Bahamas
Grand Canyon, United States
Prefer both beauty and adventure when you travel? Consider hiking to the base of the Grand Canyon and camping for the ultimate domestic outdoors adventure. If you are feeling outdoorsy but not SO adventurous, take in the gorgeous views from the top of the canyon and then book a white water adventure along the Colorado River, which runs through the gorge. This destination heats up over the summer, so if you travel in July or August plan to visit early in the morning or after dusk to beat the heat of the day.
Kenai Fjords National Park, Alaska
Alaska is a top summer destination for travelers near and far who want to immerse themselves in nature and solitude. Kenai FjordsNational Park is staggering large and offers views that are unmatched of the 40 glaciers that surround it. Boat tours of the area are offered daily that allow you to see the sites from a different vantage point, or perhaps book an Alaskan cruise that stops off at Kenai Fjords National Park to see more of The Last Frontier.
Baja California, Mexico
If whale watching is at the top of your list, look no further than Baja California. One of the largest peninsulas in the world and located on the Pacific coast of Mexico, Baja California is home to a large assortment of whales and marine life that are easy to spot. The weather in the summer months is truly perfect, and when paired with the tropical surroundings and turquoise water, you may never want to leave Baja California, Mexico.
Ningaloo, Australia
To escape the heat of a midwest summer, you should think about heading down under in a big way and visiting Australia, where the winter months run from June to September. Ningaloo Marine Park is a must for those wanting to spot some magical marine life, as you can view sea turtles hatching and observe breathtaking coral reef in every color under the sun.
Ningaloo Marine Park
While some of the locations on this list are domestic and relatively easy to travel to, a trip to locations such as Ningaloo, Australia or Baja California, Mexico, will take some careful planning, but that is where we come in! We would love to help you plan a once in a lifetime trip for your next summer getaway.
