Got 48 hours to relax yourself? You'll maximize your time and fun at these amazing destinations.
Alabama: Gulf Shores
For relaxing weekend getaways in Alabama, head south to the whitesand beaches of Gulf Shores. Get on the water for some deepsea fishing. History lovers can get a lesson in the Civil War along a 90mile path with more than a dozen historic sites.
Alaska: Homer
How does fresh seafood sound? You'll find it in Homer, located in southcentral Alaska, which is either a short flight or a great fourhour scenic drive on the Seward Highway from Anchorage. Get your fill of fishing in Kachemak Bay, explore local trails and enjoy exceptional birding in this remote natural setting.
Arizona: Sedona
Adventurous types can get their fill in the magical red rocks of Sedona, which is said to be the location of healing centers of energy. People flood to the area to meditate, practice yoga and more. Sedona also offers fantastic hiking, offroading, biking, and even climbing.
Arkansas: Hot Springs
Relax and renew in Arkansas, hot waters in Hot Springs, an art community with Art Deco architecture that is also the home of Hot Springs National Park. Make time for a visit to Bathhouse Row, a National Historic Landmark of eight bathhouses, and Superior Bathhouse Brewery, which produces beer made of the hot spring water inside the National Park. Don't miss these National Parks that are off the beaten path.
