East Coast Elegance

The East Coast, with its storied history and pristine shores, offers numerous options for beach lovers. Cape Cod in Massachusetts is a quintessential summer retreat, boasting charming lighthouses and dune-backed beaches. For a more tropical feel, head to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, where windswept landscapes and wild horses provide a unique backdrop for your holidays.

Southern Sun

Down south, the beaches of Florida beckon with their warm waters and year-round sunshine. Miami's South Beach is not only a hub of activity but also one of the United States' most iconic sandy spots, famous for its Art Deco architecture and vibrant nightlife. For a more laid-back vibe, consider the lesser-known Gulf Coast, where places like Destin offer emerald-green waters and some of the most idyllic settings for United States beach holidays.

Welcome to the West Coast

Over on the West Coast, California remains a perennial favourite. Santa Monica combines a classic beach experience with a bustling pier that promises fun for all ages. Venture further north to Malibu, where the coastline provides a more secluded feel, ideal for those looking to enjoy a quieter retreat immersed in natural beauty.

The Magic of Hawaii

The Hawaiian Islands, though a longer journey from the mainland, reward visitors with beaches that often top the lists of best beach vacations in the world. From Waikiki's iconic surf breaks in Oahu to the dramatic coastlines of Kauai, each island promises a unique experience soaked in natural splendour and rich cultural tradition.

Discover the Lesser-Known Gems

While famous beaches certainly have their appeal, the United States' coastline is dotted with lesser-known gems that promise serenity and breathtaking views. Cannon Beach in Oregon, with its towering Haystack Rock, offers a rugged beauty that is both enchanting and mystical. Meanwhile, on the eastern seaboard, the beaches of Maine provide a tranquil escape, perfect for those seeking solitude amidst nature's raw beauty.

Travel Tips for Your Beach Getaway

  • Pack sunscreen and protective clothing to shield against the sun, especially during peak hours.
  • Choose accommodations wisely—beachfront rentals offer the best views but book early, especially during peak season.
  • Consider local eateries that provide fresh seafood and region-specific delicacies—a culinary experience not to be missed.
  • Respect the beach rules and guidelines to ensure these natural wonders remain pristine for years to come.

Embarking on a beach vacation in the United States not only promises an escape into nature but also creates an opportunity to explore diverse cultures and landscapes. With countless United States vacation packages available, planning your ideal sandy retreat has never been easier. Whether you're lounging under the Californian sun or discovering the wild beauty of the East Coast, the American shores offer endless possibilities for relaxation and exploration. So, why wait any longer? Pack your bags and uncover the hidden treasures and world-famous beaches that await across this vast nation.

We are still on our journey in Italy. At Capri now and heading to the Amalfi Coast. So far, we can’t thank Goway enough for putting our itinerary together so quickly. Everything is going well and hope the next 10 days are perfect too. Gladys Vivian

Can't say enough good things about Goway Travel. From the very start, our travel rep, Harpreet, listened carefully to what we were hoping to see and do on our first trip to Japan. She asked great questions and then came back to us with a detailed itinerary packed with adventure and fun, and all within our travel budget. From the moment we took off from LAX, Harpreet had made sure we had every tour voucher, hotel voucher, plane ticket, train ticket, literally every detail covered. All we had to do was follow our itinerary. Also, Harpreet booked us into terrific hotels. Each one was spotlessly clean, comfortable, included a full (and delicious) breakfast and, most importantly, was centrally located to all of the activities she had planned for us. So everything was a 5 or 10-minute walk away. In three weeks' time we were able to visit six cities and so many fascinating shrines, temples, castles, imperial palaces - most of which were World Heritage sites. Harpreet also tucked in fabulous "experiences" like learning how to make sushi with a professional chef, enjoying a tea ceremony and watching graceful Geishas dance. My husband and I are seasoned travelers. But we don't speak Japanese and we really knew very little about the country. There is no way we would have been able to see and do all of the fascinating things we did in Japan if we hadn't chosen Goway Travel to be our guide. Many thanks for an unforgettable trip!

Great country (Italy), great people and love the feel you get by just being you. Ingrid Aird did a great job with a pair of tours one private and one group. Organizing pickup from airport and flights. Hotel, Enterprise Hotel, after a bit of a rough start getting us into a proper room, was more than excellent.Thomas Helps

We were looking forward to a magical vacation in Greece, and Goway Travel delivered on all fronts. This is the second time that we have booked with them (the first being an incredible excursion in Thailand), and everything went along swimmingly. Only on one occasion did a tour go sideways, but our Goway specialist (Patrick) took care of it for us. When your tour involves many flights, numerous hotels, various tours, ferries, and transfers, it is nice to know that your travel specialist can handle it all. Goway (from Patrick to all the other staff involved) handled everything in such a professional manner. Thanks Goway for such an incredible experience in Greece. I look forward to another adventure in the near future!Jenny Friess

We recently returned from France - three cities in two weeks - and our trip was fantastic! Jacqueline helped us with a return to France with no worries and concerns. Drivers met us at every destination- hotels were superb and the individual tours memorable. This is a return vacation with Goway and we could not be more pleased. The customer service is top notch and all questions answered promptly. For us seniors, we appreciate all the thoughtfulness and consideration.ElizaGray

While researching suppliers for a clients Thailand honeymoon, I remembered being referred to GoWay by a longterm TA ….because they “get it right and get it done!” I had already started their training modules, so I put in a quote. Immediately, Taylor responded with a very thorough email and we decided to chat. I gave him my specifics and he again responded immediately and matched my client’s travel needs 100%. I found it comforting to speak with a country expert with the knowledge I needed. My clients booked their vacation and are very excited about their itinerary! Thank you Taylor for making this process seamless.Karla B

Our rep at GoWay, Kimberly, was fantastic from start to finish. She came up with the exact itinerary we wanted for Melbourne, Uluru, Cairns and Sydney, and assisted us with both international and domestic flights to help us get the best rates. Once we were on the trip, everything flowed seamlessly and every tour and transport was on time.Lisa Wildes
