East Coast Elegance

The East Coast, with its storied history and pristine shores, offers numerous options for beach lovers. Cape Cod in Massachusetts is a quintessential summer retreat, boasting charming lighthouses and dune-backed beaches. For a more tropical feel, head to the Outer Banks of North Carolina, where windswept landscapes and wild horses provide a unique backdrop for your holidays.

Southern Sun

Down south, the beaches of Florida beckon with their warm waters and year-round sunshine. Miami's South Beach is not only a hub of activity but also one of the United States' most iconic sandy spots, famous for its Art Deco architecture and vibrant nightlife. For a more laid-back vibe, consider the lesser-known Gulf Coast, where places like Destin offer emerald-green waters and some of the most idyllic settings for United States beach holidays.

Welcome to the West Coast

Over on the West Coast, California remains a perennial favourite. Santa Monica combines a classic beach experience with a bustling pier that promises fun for all ages. Venture further north to Malibu, where the coastline provides a more secluded feel, ideal for those looking to enjoy a quieter retreat immersed in natural beauty.

The Magic of Hawaii

The Hawaiian Islands, though a longer journey from the mainland, reward visitors with beaches that often top the lists of best beach vacations in the world. From Waikiki's iconic surf breaks in Oahu to the dramatic coastlines of Kauai, each island promises a unique experience soaked in natural splendour and rich cultural tradition.

Discover the Lesser-Known Gems

While famous beaches certainly have their appeal, the United States' coastline is dotted with lesser-known gems that promise serenity and breathtaking views. Cannon Beach in Oregon, with its towering Haystack Rock, offers a rugged beauty that is both enchanting and mystical. Meanwhile, on the eastern seaboard, the beaches of Maine provide a tranquil escape, perfect for those seeking solitude amidst nature's raw beauty.

Travel Tips for Your Beach Getaway

  • Pack sunscreen and protective clothing to shield against the sun, especially during peak hours.
  • Choose accommodations wisely—beachfront rentals offer the best views but book early, especially during peak season.
  • Consider local eateries that provide fresh seafood and region-specific delicacies—a culinary experience not to be missed.
  • Respect the beach rules and guidelines to ensure these natural wonders remain pristine for years to come.

Embarking on a beach vacation in the United States not only promises an escape into nature but also creates an opportunity to explore diverse cultures and landscapes. With countless United States vacation packages available, planning your ideal sandy retreat has never been easier. Whether you're lounging under the Californian sun or discovering the wild beauty of the East Coast, the American shores offer endless possibilities for relaxation and exploration. So, why wait any longer? Pack your bags and uncover the hidden treasures and world-famous beaches that await across this vast nation.

I can't tell you enough how much I love to work with Callie. She is a life saver and I love how attentive she is. Every time I give her an itinerary for a client- she really knocks it out of the park with the proposal. If there are any issues- she is on it right away. Her work ethic is outstanding.Michelle Labarca

I had the pleasure of working with Amelia on a booking for a family of 4 to Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. She executed everything perfectly, was attentive to needs and the family was over the top happy with their vacation. She was quick to answer questions and provide helpful feedback. Highly recommended!Jessie Williams

We were trying to navigate Swiss Travel Center to book a 10 day train trip through Switzerland. It was exactly what we wanted but navigating their site was extremely difficult for us. Goway Travel picked up on our plight and put us in contact with Jacqueline Fagooli, one of their agents. From there on everything was so smooth. Their efficiency, communication, and thoroughness were beyond our expectations. The trip was fabulous and kudos to Jacqueline and Goway for their help in making it so.Carolyn McCormack

The destination specialist I've worked with (Kim Rawlings) has provided exceptional service. She is very knowledgeable of her region and everything they have to offer. She is very prompt in her communication and follow-up. She listens and is very attentive to my client's needs and wants. Kim's personality makes one feel like they've known each other for years. If GoWay had a customer service model, Kim is it.T. Jackson, Tribe Trek Travel

I just returned from escorting 34 people to China with four stops. We had hotels, local guides and extensive daily sightseeing. We had flights and we had high speed rail. There were numerous components that could have gone wrong but did not. I would like to highly recommend local guide Yoyo in Shanghai as well as Kevin in Xian. Two of the best guides I have ever had anywhere in the world. Suzette Castro and her team at the Goway Group Department did an excellent job helping me put this together. I was demanding, they were totally cooperative. It went well. I will be back. Amy Fink, CTC at Blue Ribbon Travel ArrangementsAmy in San Bruno, CA
