time each year opt to use it in the summer months when gas prices are high and everyone else is vacationing too. This often leads to flaring tempers on the road and at the destination due to overcrowding and the rise in prices. Taking your beach
vacation in the inevitably having to pay more because this is the time of year when travel companies and tourist destinations raise prices in an effort to bilk as much revenue as they can get within the short three month window in which their businesses operate in the red.
A beach vacation
is supposed to be about from frustration and worry. I find this is easy to do if I take my beach vacations in the winter. I hate winter and the uncontrollable shivering that comes with it. For this reason, every year when my beach
vacation rolls around I pack my suit case and a warmer climate, such as sandy beach destination.
It's pointless to go searching for a warm beach destination in the winter though; especially on the East Coast, as well as on the West Coast (yes people, California is not always sunny and warm). This is why I choose Hawaii. I had one of the most spectacular beach vacations in a Hawaii a few years ago. It was filled with beautiful landscapes, crystal clear water and activities I never would have

imagined could exist in one place. I haven't been back since, but I intend on getting back there some day soon.
While Hawaii is nice, so is the
Caribbean. Words can't describe just how nice the beaches of the Caribbean islands are. The Dominican Republic is also a nice place to
(I did so last year). However on your beach vacation, make sure and stick to the tourist areas and the gorgeous beaches for your own safety.
All of these beach vacation destinations have provided me with one great beach vacation
after the next, but my personal favorite was St. Lucia. Though it was the most expensive beach
vacation
I ever took, it was . I have a memorable picture of a beautiful sunset that I personally took while I was there.
On a sentimental level, Puerto Rico is a personal favorite of mine. It was not the best of the islands I have visited, but it is where I met my wife and remains a place that has etched many a memorable moment into my mind.
One of the best parts about taking an exotic beach
in the winter is that it is easy to find great travel deals. Oh, and did I mention the crowds are not nearly as bad. Keep this in mind the next time you're dragging the family to Disneyland in August with a hundred-thousand other families in 103 degree temperatures, and maybe next time you'll give the beach a try in winter.
