12.Maine

Maine has quietly and slowly gained a reputation as a strikingly beautiful vacation destination, especially with nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Veteran visitors can confirm there is a true charm in the state’s untamed wilderness. Maine’s coastline includes rough cliffs and naturally rugged beaches, and thousands of coastal islands to see.

If you enjoy spending time in wooded areas, Maine has those too. Be sure to visit Acadia National Park. It is here you will find sandy beaches, towering mountains, dense forests, verdant greenery, multiple hiking trails, and more. Regular readers may readily recall that one of the best times to travel to Maine is in the fall. You can witness a cornucopia of color as the leaves change color. Mind you, there’s always something to see here regardless of when you visit.

13.North Carolina

Are you a road trip aficionado? If so, then take note. Travel writers report that this state is the “perfect road trip destination.” Here you will experience the beautiful scenery firsthand.

Don’t forget the famous Blue Ridge Mountains either. In fact, there are other renowned mountains throughout North Carolina’s fringes including the gorgeous Great Smoky Mountains and the Appalachian Mountains. (In fact, your rugged rovin’ writer has hiked portions of all of them and can vouch for their raw beauty!)

North Carolina has more than natural beauty though. It also has its own individual combination of aesthetics. Here you will notice a welcome, quirky blend of Bohemian vibes, hip originality, and warm Southern charm. Be sure to include the Outer Banks on your itinerary too. Take in the scenic coastline and the large beaches that are great for both relaxing and exploring.
