Best destinations for Valentine’s Day
Argentine Patagonia
According to U.S. News & World Report, Argentine Patagonia ranks 30th, dropping eight places from previous rankings.
According to U.S. News, everywhere you go in this Andean region you’ll find “cobalt blue lakes, azure glaciers, emerald trees and turquoise skies.” There are few places in the world that offer more adventure and discovery than this.
Rugged Mount Fitz Roy, the historic (and mysterious) Cave of the Hands, the Punta Tombo Nature Reserve, the Peninsula Valdes Marine Reserve, and the stunning Perito Moreno Glacier are must-sees on any trip. Bring your camera and a sense of awe.
Plitvice Lakes, Croatia
Plitvice Lakes are located on the Croatian Adriatic coast, near the border between Zadar and Zagreb, the country’s capital.
The lakes consist of 16 bodies of water connected by a series of waterfalls and fascinating bridges. They are flanked by centuries-old emerald forests teeming with birds, wolves, bears and many other animals!
Silverton, Colorado
The well-preserved frontier town of Silverton is a National Historic Landmark, and a visit there feels like a trip back in time. The Victorian-era architecture and narrow-gauge railroad give a glimpse of the early American West, even as the mines have been turned into tourist attractions and the brothels have become hotels. Silverton is a prime spot for outdoor adventure, nestled in Colorado’s San Juan Mountains. You’ll find plenty of fun and excitement in this little-travelled place, from moderate hikes and rafting trips to adrenaline-pumping heli-drops at Silverton Mountain Ski Area.
Sichuan, China
The Giant Buddha of Leshan is located in Sichuan, China. This 233-foot-tall Buddha is carved into the mountainside. The Giant Buddha is one of the largest Buddha figures in the world and was carved in the eighth century. Stay at the Panda Inn in Sichuan, which is decorated with panda images everywhere, including on the walls and furniture. The staff wears panda costumes to add to the fun.
Paris, France
“Paris is on many people’s wish list because it is one of the most famous cities in the world. There are so many famous landmarks to see here: the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame Cathedral – the list is endless.”
Amalfi Coast, Italy
Cancun has long been a popular destination for Americans from the East Coast (especially Floridians) who want an international vacation close to home. Despite the influx of tourists, the region has retained the appeal that distinguished it in the first place.
Cancun is known for its first-class hotels, vibrant nightlife and warm beaches. Treat yourself to all of that – and the local cuisine, too! – But you can also enjoy other activities such as visiting Mayan ruins, swimming in cenotes, and snorkeling.
Before you go
While travelling on Valentine’s Day can enhance mutual feelings, we must also be mindful of our safety, especially when travelling by water. When we travel abroad, the local water supply may not meet our needs, or we may not have enough bottled water with us so that we can use the water purifier we have on hand.
