We’ve all been somewhere where we feel as if we’re going to melt into the pavement. Heck, we’ve probably all been to beaches that feel like we’ll melt into the sand if we ever got out of the water. Leave those sunny getaways to the East Coast, where you find out real quick why many …

Guys, we’ve found a unicorn. While headlines continue to warn of dreadful security lines at airports of all sizes — including one man with the genius side hustle to hold your place for, ya know, just $600 — this California icon is standing out in these frustrating times for travelers. As spring has officially sprung, …

If it weren’t for Schengen killing the fun, my passport would be bleeding ink. Having the pleasure of visiting far-flung countries such as Estonia and Morocco to global icons like Cancun (where I’m currently writing this), some might say I’ve travelled backwards. Sure, it’s a lot easier to start in your own backyard, but there …

Even before Biggie and Tupac, there has long been an East Coast versus West Coast rivalry. Florida and California could drop some banger diss tracks on one another as each side has its own unique appeal.

You might think it’s odd for the first sentence of a California-based article to rave about the Mediterranean, but we all know that’s one of the dreamiest regions on the planet for a paradisal vacation.

Travelers always find themselves in a pickle this time of year: West Coast vs. East Coast like an old school rap battle. Florida just announced they shattered tourism records — again. Those numbers aren’t solely derived from Spring Break shenanigans and summer family vacays — you can’t forget the “snowbirds”. As such, deciding which side …

Alcatraz? That’s old news. Well, unless it really does reopen… But there’s another San Francisco island that tourists tend to overlook. No, it’s not the charming urban island of Alameda with its secret beaches and top-notch breweries. This island takes a ride on the wild side, boasting stunning nature with unmatched views of San Fran’s …

As we’re now officially in the fall season, charming small towns become all the more alluring as if we’re immersing ourselves into a Hallmark movie. One of the most scenic regions on the West Coast is California’s wine country, not only to sip on grown-up grape juice, but to enjoy the outdoors in the crisp …

Is Napa old news? Hardly. That doesn’t mean you can’t get your fill (literally) in a neighboring wine region boasting far less crowds and equal beauty. The secret may be out, however. A new report claims one of California’s most beautiful fall getaways is on pace for a record year, and that’s even after news …

Condè Nast has long been more than a monthly magazine filler in your mailbox — these travel experts generally know what they’re hyping up. Their latest list of must-visit destinations showcasing America’s ’31 Most Beautiful Towns’ only includes a single California destination. Can you believe it?

As a decade-long California resident, I can attest that LA isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
