Are you planning a romantic vacation this year? Do you need help with choosing from all of the destinations available to you? Well, you've come to the right place. Below you will find my top seven choices for a romantic rendezvous with out having to leave the country.

Big Sur, California

Located on the central California coast, Big Sur offers breathtaking mountain and ocean views, and sparkling starry nights. The main attraction is all the beauty nature has to offer. Surrounded by the Ventana Wilderness and offering romantic attractions such as the Esalen Hot Springs and Point Sur Lighthouse, Big Sur becomes a top pick for a relaxing vacation. The weather in Big Sur is best in the spring and fall months. If you vacation here during mid summer you shouldn't be surprised to find the coast covered with fog. Don't choose Big Sur as a spur of the moment trip thinking you can go into town and find a place to stay, hotels and bed and breakfast rooms stay booked, so reserve a room early. While you are there don't miss out on the opportunity to visit Pfeiffer Beach. This beach is little known to tourists. Hidden off Highway 1, on a street with no sign, lies a beach that should be one of the wonders of the world. With dramatic off shore rock formations and purple sand, you will never see another beach quite like this. Make sure to go early, once the parking lot is full, the rangers will turn you away.

Savannah, Georgia

For a romantic, laid back getaway you can't go wrong with Savannah Georgia. Travel back in time to a place where horse drawn carriage rides happen every day. Located just miles from the Atlantic coast, this town has much to offer. Think about lazy afternoons swinging on a porch swing with ice cold lemonade and large fans twirling overhead. The historic district offers shops, cafes, and many restaurants. For a romantic evening, travel to nearby Tybee Island and climb to the top of the Tybee Island Lighthouse or take a cruise down the Savannah River.

Anchorage, Alaska

Takeaways
