Why settle for yet another sightseeing vacation where you spend more time wandering around a new city than you do anything else? With active vacations, you can still check out the local sites, but these vacations also keep you active. No matter what interests you, you’ll find the perfect vacation.
Golfing Vacations
Golfing enthusiasts know that nothing beats a golfing vacation. As much as you enjoy the courses at home, you likely want to experience new courses. Many resorts and hotels offer discounts for guests who want to play at the local courses, and you can find some vacation packages that come with tee times. Depending on your level of experience, you might even spend some time with a pro before hitting the links with your branded golf balls from GolfMotion.
Tennis Camps
Tennis camps aren’t just for kids anymore. If you enjoy breaking a sweat on the court, head to a tennis camp for adults. These camps let you hone your skills by pairing you with a former professional player or a tennis expert, but you also get to play against other too. Don’t forget to bring your sunscreen to stay safe on the court.
Spa Retreats
Not everyone looks forward to breaking a sweat on vacation, and if you feel the same way, take a trip to one of the more popular spa retreats. Many of these spas offer manicures, pedicures, massages, facials and other treatments that will make you feel relaxed, while others offer a combination of physical activity and spa treatments that help you burn calories and lose weight on your trip.
The Great Outdoors
Instead of spending your next vacation at a hotel or resort, why not head outside? Camping offers a number of opportunities for those interested in the great outdoors. Some campers love pitching a tent right on the beach, while others like staying in national or state parks. You’ll also find cabins for rent and campgrounds that offer rental cabins and campers. You can hike, swim, fish or do dozens of other activities depending on where you camp.
Cooking Vacations
Thanks to the Food Network and cooking shows, people now love getting in the kitchen and experimenting with different ingredients. With cooking vacations, you learn how to make different dishes and work with different ingredients from the top experts in the field. You’ll learn how to wow your family with dishes in the middle of the week and how to make dishes for special occasions.
Hiking
There are so many amazing outdoors that are ready to be explored. For your next vacation consider strapping on a backpack and hitting the trails. It’s a little more involved than sitting on a beach, but for those that enjoy and adventure and the outdoors then this is a must.
No matter which vacation you pick, you’ll have more fun than if you simply went sightseeing.
