7 Fantastic Winter Beach Destinations
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina: This popular beach destination isn’t just for Spring Break or summer travel. Waters remain warm and beautiful well into fall months. While you may not want to get in the water during winter months, the area still has tons of fun family friendly things to do. Plus you’ll be able to walk the beach with ease since there will be few if any crowds.
Coronado Beach in San Diego, California: San Diego remains a beautiful warm temperature year round. While it does get mildly cooler in the winter months, many people find the beaches on and near Coronado to be warm enough to take a dip year round. This island area a couple of miles from San Diego is a perfect small town atmosphere with all of the amenities within minutes.
Cancun, Mexico: Well known Mexican beach destination and popular resort town, Cancun offers warm waters and beautiful beaches year round. As winter sets in, you’ll be able to escape the snow and ice to a warm weather climate at one of the many great resorts in Cancun.
Key West, Florida: At the very end of the United States you find a beautiful travel destination with warm waters year round. The Keys aren’t just famous for their limes. The beaches, resorts, food and fun in this area are a great reason to head to the southern tip of the US for one of the best fun winter beach destinations. Here is a list of things I want to do in Key West.
Waikiki, Oahu: This popular surfers beach in Hawaii is the epitome of the best winter beach destination for anyone. With beaches for miles, amazing food and of course the fun Polynesian culture, Oahu is a great travel destination for anyone.
