Destinations of the Day
Key West, Florida
  • Resident population: 22,364 (est.)
  • Major features: water sports, beaches
  • 24,405 TripAdvisor reviews of 662 accommodations, 148 attractions and 220 restaurants
Where else are Ernest Hemingway and Jimmy Buffett equally revered? Key West is a sunny, fun destination with enough sights to keep you busy when you're not snorkeling, parasailing or catching some rays.
Sardinia, Italy
  • Resident population: 1,655,677 Annual visitors: 12,000,000 (est.)
  • Major features: beaches, caves and grottoes, forest scenery
  • 12,871 TripAdvisor reviews of 1,394 accommodations, 81 attractions and 274 restaurants
The second-largest island in Mediterranean after Sicily, Sardinia serves up a lovely blend of sea, sand and history. Thousands of nuraghe (stone buildings) dot the landscape, proof that people have been enjoying the lovely climate here for millennia.
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
  • Resident population: 30,596 Annual visitors: 14,600,000 (est.)
  • Major features: golf courses, beaches, amusement parks, nightlife, casino cruises, fishing, shopping
  • 23,273 TripAdvisor reviews of 892 accommodations, 88 attractions and 338 restaurants
One may think the sun, 60 miles of wide sandy beaches and more than a hundred golf courses would be enough to lure vacationers to Myrtle Beach, but this popular coastal city offers even more to enjoy.
Istanbul, Turkey
  • Resident population: 12,569,041 Annual visitors: 3,994,000 (est.)
  • Major features: mosques, Turkish baths, palaces, nightlife, bazaars
  • 24,397 TripAdvisor reviews of 743 accommodations, 147 attractions and 857 restaurants
Historic and modern, European and Asian — that's Istanbul. The city at the junction of two continents is home to ancient structures like the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque in the Old City, as well as modern businesses, hotels, restaurants and nightlife in the New City.
Bangkok, Thailand
  • Resident population: 5,658,953 Annual visitors: 10,350,000 (est.)
  • Major features: temples, palaces, nightlife
  • 30,249 TripAdvisor reviews of 691 accommodations, 195 attractions and 608 restaurants
Bangkok is a city to overload the senses. Streets are crowded by tuk-tuks (motorized tri-shaws) and the occasional elephant weaving through congested traffic.
