Beach trip recommendations?
Jan 24, 2024, 10:42 AM
|
|
We went to San Diego last year and had a blast. This year the exact same trip is almost 2x the cost. They liked the zoo, aircraft carrier, military museum, and the beach. Given the stupid cost increase, we're wondering if we should go somewhere else and find a cool town.
Basically want waves and a walkable town. Anything else is a bonus. Outside of the Gulf Coast, what towns/cities would you recommend? East or West coast is fine. Kids are 9 and 11 years old so there will be 4 of us. Thanks.

$7500 per week, I think. They referred to it as a shack. I haven't seen it though, so I got no clue.
Daughter is making plans to go there this summer with her friend though.

And they're all 16. You just have to imagine the Disney Universe has a very progressive attitude towards May-December relationships.

announced direct flights from GSP to a few different locations.
One of those is Tampa and I saw pricing "from" $49 each way. That'd be an inexpensive way to get to Anna Maria if you don't fance the 12 hour drive.

Chester County is a wonderfully underutilized vacation destination, and swimming in Fishing Creek can be quite rejuvenating.
