We all have our favorite beaches for many different reasons, whether they be kid-friendly, boast the best sunsets, or great surfing waves, but Fodor’s, one of the world’s largest travel guides, has made it easy to find more perfect beaches – at various price points – around the globe.
The new “80 degrees by the sea” tool on Fodor’s website is a neat way to combine different aspects that may be seeking in a beach vacation, giving you a number of different results based on your aspirations of lounging, activity, and other factors. Check it out here. With a major snowstorm on the way, it’s definitely not too early to start dreaming of a tropical getaway.
