9.  The Olympic Peninsula

Explore Washington state’s rugged coast and see the lush forests and massive mountains of Olympic National Park.  Begin in the city of Seattle, the birthplace of grunge music, and follow the loop around Puget Sound.  Take a detour and ride a ferry to Vashon Island.  

There you can stroll along the beach and visit old Point Robinson Lighthouse.  Go for a hike in beautiful Olympic National Park, then drive on to historic Port Townsend.  There you can see all the Victorian houses and old waterfront neighborhoods.

 

10.  The Gulf Coast Of Florida

If you want to avoid the powerful heat and humidity of summer and see some striking scenery then drive around here in the fall.  Cruise the 19-mile drive on Highway 30A.  This takes you along the sparkling Gulf of Mexico, or even further if you wish.  

Visit one of the beach neighborhoods in South Walton where the sand is white as sugar due to its quartz crystal makeup. Stop and see the coastal dune lakes that only exist in a few places on the planet.  Grab a bite to eat at Airstream Row.  It’s an interesting street lined with aluminum eateries serving up tasty treats.
