Where to go for a weekend on Labor Day
Labor Day is the last real chance to have a good time this weekend. If you still haven't decided where to go, now is the time to decide.
USA Today has prepared the best places for the last summer weekend.
1. In Islamorada from Miami
This is one of the best fishing spots in the world. You can get to the village of Islamorada in less than 2 hours by car from Miami. There are many types of scuba diving. In addition, the city has many boutiques, galleries and places with colorful sunsets, and you can always take a cool fruit cocktail and relax on the beautiful beaches.
2. To New Orleans from Miami
Unfortunately, some areas of southeastern Louisiana have still not recovered from the floods, but New Orleans was not injured, so the residents of Miami can get on a plane and in two hours find themselves in Big Easy.
New Orleans has a reputation as a city where you can easily find any kind of "adult" entertainment. The city is known for its club life, availability of alcohol, music, casinos, and large gay community. But besides this, New Orleans is home to historical districts, interesting architecture, museums, shopping, festivals, parades, and vibrant holidays.
3. To Portland from Los Angeles
Weekends can get pretty hot, so we offer to meet Labor Day in Portland, where, on average, the temperature will fluctuate within 24 degrees. In restaurants you can find healthy and tasty dishes. Locals are proud that all products are local and go straight to the table from farms. The city has vintage shops, cocktail bars and the famous Voodoo donut. The city is easily accessible by train.
4. To Sayulito, Nayarit, Mexico from Los Angeles
If you want to switch things up and relax, go to Sayulita. This fishing village is a great place for those who are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city. Besides the amazing food and picturesque beaches, visitors can also try yoga and scuba diving, try their hand at sailing or go trekking through the jungle. Believe me, it's worth the 3-hour flight.
5. To Wilmington from Washington
Arriving in the most affordable coastal city of North Carolina, you will feel the fresh air, be gifted with friendly smiles and be able to choose which beach to relax on. In the city you can look at several boutiques and cafes. History buffs can visit the Bellamy mansion, while nature lovers will enjoy walks along the river.
6. In Virginia Beach from Washington
In less than an hour, residents of Washington will be able to start their Labor Day in Virginia Beach. This is a large military town and an ideal place to relax on the sea. There are many sandy beaches, dolphins, cruises, water sports and even a lighthouse.
7. On the New York Finger Lakes from New York
Sometimes you do not need to fly far to relax on weekends. Fly to 90-minute flight to Ithaca, and then get into the car, driving through small towns along Finger Lake. Here you can actively travel on foot, dive under the water or just enjoy the cider. This region is one of the leading producers of cider.
8. To Philadelphia from New York
If you love city life but want to explore other places, take the train to Philadelphia Station in 90 minutes. Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell Pavilion are considered Philadelphia's most important landmarks. However, the entire historical district located between the Delaware River and downtown is no less interesting. The historical part of the city is a quiet and atmospheric place. Narrow streets, an abundance of squares and parks, blocks of brick buildings with the unique architecture of past centuries are simply filled with the most interesting sights and historical monuments.
9. To New York from Chicago
New York has two key urban characteristics: diversity and density. New York is an incredibly diverse city. Manhattan is the heart and nerve of the metropolis, the financial center of the United States. This is the most attractive area for tourists. Grand skyscrapers, Broadway, diverse neighborhoods, Central Park, numerous cultural and historical attractions, the Statue of Liberty (departure by ferry from Lower Manhattan) - all this allows us to call Manhattan one of the main symbols of America.
10. In Louisville from Chicago
Travel time from Chicago to Louisville is just an hour's flight. There are fantastic restaurants, lively bars, scenes, and a historic district.
11. To Big Sur from San Francisco
Two hours by car from San Francisco and you will be on the highest coastal mountain. This is a great place to write a novel or great social media posts.
12. To Las Vegas from San Francisco
Spend 90 minutes on the flight and find yourself in the city of rustling banknotes. This is a point of attraction for ladies with cleavage, their rich companions, gambling older ladies and, of course, tourists. There are about a hundred huge complexes open there, which are gambling establishments, hotels, and shopping and entertainment centers.
