]]>Located at the southern tip of Florida are the Keys—a collection of islands that form the southernmost part of the US mainland. At the bottom of this collection of islands is Key West. Located just 95 miles north of Cuba, Key West has a host of sugar sand beaches and Bahamian-inspired architecture, making for an idealistic getaway.
Flush with blue lagoons and hibiscuses, the quaint Hawaiian island of Kauai is the perfect place to become one with nature. Characterized by rainforests and waterfalls, there are plenty of hiking trails to explore in this slice of paradise, not to mention resorts and beaches for those looking to sit back and relax.
On the northern coast of Florida overlooking the Atlantic Ocean is Amelia Island. From luxurious hotels and spas to its boardwalk and plenty of biking, surfing, and kayaking, this destination is ideal for active vacations and restful getaways alike.

]]>Napa Valley is known for being one of the greatest wine-producing hubs in the world. It has countless vineyards that you and your loved one can visit, and while the pair of you get tipsy into the moonlight, the romantic lush California scenery will feel magical. To round out your trip, take a kayak tour along the Russian River during the daytime.
If you and your bae have an affinity for desert landscapes, there’s no better place to visit than the Arizona town of Sedona. Its vast expanse of red rocks and sandstone buttes has the potential to be incredibly romantic if that’s the kind of thing you two like. After hiking along one of its many trails (such as the Verde Valley Wine Trail), finish off the day with a relaxing massage.
It almost feels like cheating to put any place from Hawaii on this list. The truth is that any of Hawaii’s islands can stand alone as perfect romantic getaways, but Kauai is probably the most popular. Whether you feel like hiking on the Napali Coast or lounging on its endless beaches, this island is a paradise for you and your loved one. It’s a no-brainer to come here if you get the chance.

]]>It can often be difficult to decide which island is right for you when planning your excursion to Hawaii, so let this guide help you settle on the best island for you.
Kauai, whose nickname is “The Garden Isle,” is the perfect island to choose if you are looking to get lost in nature and avoid the crowds. Located in the western third of the archipelago, you will find mountains, rainforests, and virgin beaches here without the overwhelming crowds that you can often find on other islands.
Oahu is the most populated island and Hawaii and the one with the biggest tourism scene and with good reason. The biggest city (Honolulu) and the largest international airport are located here, making it a hub for travelers and offering up bars, nightlife, and shopping. Surfers will also love the big waves that can be caught on the island’s north shore.
The second-largest Hawaiian island is Maui, and it is a great “halfway” point for travelers who are looking for equal parts relaxation and attractions. Great for families thanks to its tourist infrastructure and nice beaches, adventurers will also appreciate Maui’s outdoor sports opportunities.

]]>On the garden island known as Kauai, Kauai Coffee has quickly become one of the top attractions for visitors to the island. You can take a tour of the plantation via an open-air bus for $25 and learn about the lifecycle of coffee beans, from tree to cup. There is also a complimentary walking tour, with free coffee samples served inside of the main office.
If you head over to the Big Island, you can sample some of the Kona grown coffees from Mountain Thunder Coffee Plantation. Due to the fact that the island has two active volcanoes, the area in which these coffee beans are grown is one of the lushest in the world. That rich soil can be tasted in every cup. There are free tours every hour, and for an additional cost, you can take a tour of the coffee fields and the nearby lava tubes.

]]>But if you’re serious about finding the best places to snorkel in Hawaii, we’ve assembled a few of the top places to go.
The tiny island of Molokini lies 25 miles off the south coast of Maui. It is actually a volcanic crater that has become partially submerged. The variety of marine life to be seen in this marvel of a snorkeling destination has to be seen to be believed.
Take a trip to Shark’s Cove in Oahu if you’re the brave kind. Fins are advised, and beginners are discouraged from trying this spot because of strong currents.
Tunnel’s Beach is a hidden wonder that’s a little bit of a secret, but it offers some of Kauai Island’s best snorkeling. If you dive down a bit, you’ll also discover fascinating underwater caverns.

Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve is one of the greatest snorkeling destinations Hawaii has to offer. The pristine waters ensure the adventure of a lifetime. Get there at high tide to avoid injuring yourself on the coral that is exposed at low tide.
