White sand awaits you at Myrtle Beach<\/a>. Photo: iStockphoto<\/p><\/div>\n

It\u2019s hard to believe\u2014<\/b>a bit depressing, in fact\u2014<\/b>that summer is winding down. But there\u2019s still time to bask in the sun\u2019s warm rays\u2014<\/b>before the chill ever sets in. Here are some top spots to wrap up the season in style.<\/p>\n

Bermuda<\/a>, situated off the coast of South Carolina, is the perfect end-of-season respite. Still warm and less tourist-thronged, it\u2019s an idyllic, tropical-feeling respite, one that\u2019s as attractive to canoodling couples as it built for a beachy family adventure.<\/p>\n

If sand and sun are your thing, South Carolina\u2019s Myrtle Beach<\/a> offers another outdoorsy option. Adding to the allure, most visitors have packed up and left, meaning you won\u2019t have to vie for position on the boardwalk or struggle to score real estate on the white, powdery beach.<\/p>\n

Thinking Europe? Consider jetting to Paris<\/a> before the kiddos return to class. Right about now, many residents are off enjoying their own pre-fall vacation. As such, there are bargains to be found, including at restaurants and boutiques.<\/p>\n

For a taste of Americana, though, it\u2019s hard to beat Yellowstone<\/a>. Old Faithful and the Mammoth Hot Springs are every bit as awe-inspiring\u2014<\/b>if less populated\u2014<\/b>this time of year. And since nights remain warm, consider camping in lieu of potentially pricy lodging.<\/p>\n

Alternately, consider a jaunt to Maine<\/a>\u2014<\/b>Acadia, in particular, where ocean and mountains pave the way for a peaceful, pleasant retreat. But pack your hiking shoes since you\u2019ll undoubtedly want to hit the pine-scented trails.\"\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
