Great Sand Dunes National Park is like a combo of four different awesome places in one, sand dunes, forests, creeks, and mountains. Can you think of anywhere else in the US that has so much cool stuff to see? The dunes here, some as big as mountains, almost look like they’re not real—they’re that amazing.

This Colorado park is perfect for outdoor fun, whether you’re into sand sledding, hiking, camping, swimming in Medano Creek, or 4WD adventures through the trails. And guess what? There are waterfalls and ranches nearby where you can stay. Picture yourself chilling on a ranch in Colorado and exploring some of the biggest rolling dunes you’ve ever seen.

You can hike through the park, take a dip in the creek under a waterfall, try sandboarding down a small dune, and gaze at the stars in the wide-open sky, all before heading back to your cozy ranch. Sounds like one of the coolest, underrated vacation spots to me!

The very mention of “East Coast beach towns” brings to mind some famous names like Cape Cod and The Hamptons. It is surprising to know that Dewey Beach is also a charming little tourist destination that often gets overlooked. Dewey is an island let’s say, about a mile long and wide and can be reached by bridge by both sides of the Atlantic Ocean and by Assawoman Bay.

The uniqueness of Dewey Beach is that the beach is not only a great place to relax and go to for a serene state of mind, but also for food lovers. With Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, and Ocean City, Maryland right on one side of it, Dewey sets itself apart from the usually busy and laid-back beach towns as a calm and tranquil place.

Within just about 1/2 mile you can walk to all these restaurants, a concert venue, a tiki bar on the beach, and a famous brewery, and there are some super fantastic beaches too. Also, with everything to be found in the neighborhood, you will be in the position to have a busy day as well as a relaxed and unwinding one. Also Delaware offers view of no taxes, hence when you go out it can be a reason for your saving. While Dewey is a great place to visit if you just want to relax and flow with your hours, it’s up to you whether you want your day to be rather routine or unpredictable.

Unique & Unknown Places /Apostle Islands, Wisconsin

People usually associate my home state, Wisconsin, with beer, cheese curds, and state fairs. But Wisconsin has a lot more to offer!

Take the Apostle Islands, for example. This National Lakeshore consists of 28 islands in Lake Superior, just off the coast of Wisconsin. These islands provide opportunities for cliff diving, camping, kayaking, cave exploration, and visiting lighthouses. The scenery is breathtaking, and it’s hard to believe you’re on a big lake and not somewhere in the Caribbean. In the warm summer months, you can even hop on a water taxi, charter, or cruise around these magnificent islands.

The best part about this hidden gem is that it’s fantastic to visit both in the summer and winter. But for a completely different experience, you might want to wait for winter.

Don’t worry; winters in Wisconsin aren’t that harsh. And the cold is totally worth it because, in the winter, you can walk around the caves, usually filled with water. The wintertime turns these caves into a magical display of icicles!
