Multigenerational

Whether embarking on family travels, wellness retreats or solo trips, it’s time to start planning your ultimate fall adventure.

 

For Young Families

With school officially back, it’s time to plan a trip to get the kids out of school. You’ll find plenty of activities and new discoveries for the whole family in Indian River County, and Vero Beach, Florida. McKee Botanical Gardens welcomes young ones with hands-on exploration at its Children’s Garden. The Sebastian River Inlet tidal pool lets little explorers discover the wonders of nature, while Riverview Park Splash Pad is perfect for kids to cool off. Head to Kids Quest,where kids turn into young buccaneers and map out their own adventures along the Treasure Coast.

 

For Wellness Warriors

Take a break from all your worries and day-to-day life with a URU Yoga retreat in Santa Rosa County, and Navarre Beach, in the Florida Panhandle. The URU Yoga leaders guide you through mindfulness meditation and yoga amid the natural beauty of Coldwater Gardens. Relax on the crystal-white beach, bath in the sounds of the universe and breathe in time with the pulse of the ocean.

 

For Eco-Conscious Travelers

Florida’s unspoiled natural springs provide an opportunity for travelers to float away their cares. Grab a paddleboard and let the current take you out as you discover the quiet and beauty of Lake City, Florida’s Springlands. Dive deep and explore the unique aquatic life that call the springs home. You may even come close to some manatees as they move inland to spend the winter in the 72-degree springs.

 

For Solo Adventurers

Get your motor running and head to the twisty mountain byways surrounding Eureka Springs, Arkansas. This corner of the Ozarks features many opportunities to explore the charming communities, sample fantastic food and drink, and meet fellow riders from all over the country.
