Hawaii State

Many people consider Hawaii a bucket list destination thanks to its idyllic ocean access, unique culture, and lush rainforests. But danger can hide behind all the beauty, especially when it comes to Hawaii's infamously perilous beaches, such as Hanakapi'ai on Kauai's Nā Pali Coast. The rugged destination only exists as a beach during the summer. In the winter, the waves and high tides obliterate the sand, with the water crashing directly on the rocks. While you can't visit during that part of the year, summer can still be treacherous.

The Lovely Hawaiian Beach That's As Dangerous As It Is Picturesque

Kauai sometimes falls off the radar when compared to the ravaging Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island or the otherworldly Haleakala Crater on Maui, but it shouldn't. That's because Kauai offers a dynamic landscape alongside a deep-rooted history and an identity all its own. Any guide to the best activities and adventures on Kauai will help you determine what to do when visiting, but you still might be in the dark when it comes to all the hidden gems that add depth and character to a place. On Kauai, that place is Hanapēpē, and it's known as "Kauai's Biggest Little Town."

Sunshine State vibes in the Buckeye State?

Just pop on over to Put-in-Bay, a lazy little tourist town on South Bass Island in Lake Erie. You'll likely hear the sound of Jimmy Buffett's "Cheeseburger in Paradise" wafting out of bars as you wander the streets in the spring and summer high season.

Many of us treat our passports as one of our most cherished possessions, and honestly, why not? Regardless of how powerful your passport is, it serves as our literal pass to enter other countries, including back to our own. Some folks even slap on fancy passport covers they spent money on for extra protection, while others fuss over looking nice in their passport photos since they usually last a decade and function as a valid form of identification, too. But let's be real, the best part of a passport is the stamps. Part of the fun of visiting other countries is collecting those little inked mementos. Unfortunately, the days of collecting them are dwindling as more countries go digital.
