Top 5 Warm Weather Vacations

With summer coming to to an end, many of us are already dreading the colder autumn and winter months. We're going to miss those sunny days when we got to dip our toes in the cool ocean water and lay out on the warm golden sand, or those hotter days when we just didn't leave the pool. But no worries - thankfully, it's still summer somewhere!

Here are 5 destinations where summer is almost endless:

1. Aruba

This gorgeous Caribbean island is a nature-lover's paradise. Immerse yourself in Aruba's natural wildlife by dipping your toes in the water alongside flamingos on Renaissance Island, strolling through the charming Butterfly Farm, or trekking the terrains of Arikok National Park. When you've had enough of the wildlife, head over to the vibrant town of Orangestad and take some Instagram-worthy pictures with the gorgeous colonial architecture serving as your backdrop! Or if you just want to relax, have a nice lazy day at Eagle Beach.

2. Bahamas

Whereas Aruba has flamingos on Renaissance (Flamingo) Island, the Bahamas has pigs on Pig Island! When you're done playing with the adorable piggies, get ready to explore so much more - from the impressive underwater cave system at Lucayan National Park to the world's second deepest blue hole, Dean's Blue Hole! All that adventuring will surely leave you tired, so you'll definitely have to head over to Pink Sand Beach to relax.

3. Costa Rica

From beautiful beaches to incredible biodiversity, Costa Rica is an outdoor enthusiast's dream come true. Stay at one of the amazing all inclusive resorts, like Planet Hollywood Costa Rica or Secrets Papagayo, and you'll be surrounded by luscious green forests. Soak in one of the many hot springs around the Arenal Volcano while enjoying the glorious sight of it, learn about the local wildlife at Ponderosa Park, or indulge in a delicious cup of coffee at Café Tío Leo.

4. Dominican Republic

The most popular part of the DR is Punta Cana, which is home to several amazing all-inclusive resorts like Zoetry Agua and Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana. With the beautiful, relaxing beaches like Bavaro Beach and Juanillo Beach, you'll be in for an incredibly rejuvenating vacation. Or if you're more of an adventure-seeker, head on over to the secluded cenote Hoyo Azul or dive into the local marine life at Seaquarium!

5. Jamaica

From endless adventures in Montego Bay to endless relaxation on the beaches of Negril, Jamaica is a wonderful place for a great vacation. Experience Bob Marley's Nine Mile Tour on your day trip to Dunn's River Falls, or shop til you drop at the Hip Strip. For the ultimate beach experience, head to Seven Mile Beach in Negril and enjoy the massive stretch of sand along the clear, turquoise blue waters.
