Wineries and Vineyards

Wineries provide the perfect ambiance for anyone to relax whether they enjoy wine or not. There is nothing more comforting than beautiful panoramic views, great conversation and good wine!

The great thing about wineries is they come in bunches just like grapes; which means you can hit up several wineries without having to travel very far at all. Tastings are usually very reasonably priced and this is why this kind of getaway makes our list of inexpensive vacations.

National Parks

Even when you do not wind up camping out at a national park, it without a doubt makes for a great all day or half day trip (depending on how close or far it is from your home). These types of trips are already inexpensive vacations, but even more so if you visit the park on a day when they have free entry (fee-free days). Visit the parks website or call the park to find out when and if they offer these types of free entry days. Nevertheless the fees are usually reasonably priced and may cost approximately $10 for each individual if you choose to go on a normal day.

Beach Adventures

Listening to the surf crashing across the beach front while talking and walking together with your close friends is most likely the vacation you really need to get the stress out of your life. The beach is usually a good choice for an inexpensive getaway when you really need to relax and let get the stress out of your life. The beach offers up a wide variety of activities which you can choose from: volleyball, Frisbee, picnicking, a bonfire, swimming and much more.
