Santa Catalina Island, commonly called Catalina, is a longtime leisure destination off the coast of Southern California. The island can be reached by ferry from Long Beach in about an hour, and the plentiful attractions range from riding glass-bottomed boats to taking tours of the wildlife that populate the more remote sections of its rugged terrain.

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.

“Get outta here now,” the woman screams, as she rolls out more white...

The destination that’s primarily responsible for the creation of Destination I Do is Maui, Hawaii. When I was only 14, I saw my first destination wedding taking place on the shores of Ka’anapali in Maui and a seed was planted. It was a simple elopement at The Westin Maui Resort & Spa, but it was the most beautiful and serene setting I’d ever witnessed in my young life. I didn’t know the couple or anything about them, but I became totally enamored watching their intimate ceremony taking place. With the golden sun setting, the glow from the sky and reflection off the water ensconcing them as if it were a dream, they said their destination “I do’s.”

Adrenaline heads getting their death-defying fix in aside, there are plenty of reasons to plan a whole vacation to a park — especially when many of them have become full-blown, all-inclusive resorts.
