The most wonderful time of the year is upon us and we can’t think of a better place to spend it than at the beach. Trade in the holiday stress for ultimate relaxation this year–we think you deserve it! Not convinced? Here are six reasons to get away this holiday season.
Escape the winter weather
Trade in your winter puffer jackets and boots for bikinis and flip flops. When you don’t live in a place where its sunny and 75 degrees almost year-round, winter months are the perfect time to pack your bags and head down south! Relax on the white sands of Riviera Maya, trek through the tropical rainforests of Costa Rica or chase waterfalls in Jamaica–the options for a winter getaway are endless.

Skip the lines and holiday traffic through each aisle of the stores for somewhere sunny and tranquil. Going out of town for the holidays doesn’t mean Christmas trees and gifts can’t happen–it just means bringing the celebration somewhere new! We mean, how special is experiencing new traditions and celebrations with your loved ones?

In the midst of last-minute holiday shopping and preparing to host family and friends, the best way to treat yourself for the holidays is by taking a beach vacay. There’s no better way to cap off the year than by relaxing on a white sand beach with a drink in hand. Relax in a slow-swaying hammock, pool or beachside, with your favorite book or indulge with a day at the spa–you deserve it.
