subject: Stunning Coastlines Perfect For Family Getaways [print this page] Taking a vacation by the sea is something most of us love to do. It's the ideal location for when you want to take a break with your family and friends, or that special someone. A visit to a beach is an ideal way to forget the pressure of everyday life, relax and have some fun.
There are hundreds of marvelous beaches the world over to choose from. You can spend your vacation on a beach in the United States, or head further afield, perhaps to one of the many romantic or tropical beaches abroad.
Maui is an ideal place to visit if you are looking forward to an idyllic vacation with your husband or wife. Situated in Hawaii, it offers some of the most romantic beaches in the world, which are often chosen by honeymooners. Apart from the amazing beaches, Maui also has other attractions.
The Virgin Islands is another place that's often chosen by couples for a romantic beach vacation. The islands have numerous pristine beaches that are just perfect for taking it easy with your favorite person. You can leave your worries at home.
For a family beach vacation there are plenty of destinations to choose from. However, California's beaches are some of the best because there you can be sure to find something for every member of the family, whatever their age.
California has 1100 miles of coastline with beaches varying from the quiet, wild type to the busy, popular ones. And of course there are attractions such as Sea World and the San Diego Zoo.
When choosing your beach vacation, be sure to bear in mind the people who will be going along with you. A romantic location will not be suitable for families with children to keep occupied, and couples might not be able to find the peace they seek in a busy family resort.
Don't make a hasty decision about where to spend your beach vacation but think it over carefully bearing in mind the people you will be spending it with. Once you have found the destination, do a little research on what it has to offer. Beach vacations are a wonderful way of recharging your batteries, but if you are going away with children you will need extra activities to keep them entertained.
