Destinations of the Day
Honolulu, Hawaii
  • Resident population: 374,676 Annual visitors: 1,733,000 (est.)
  • Major features: beaches, surfing, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head
  • 32,858 TripAdvisor reviews of 463 accommodations, 208 attractions and 1,128 restaurants
If you visit Honolulu simply for the wide Pacific beaches, the striking views of Ko'olau's pali (cliffs) and the laid-back "aloha" feeling, you'll be missing out on much this city has to offer.
Miami Beach, Florida
  • Resident population: 87,925 Annual visitors: 10,000,000 (est.)
  • Major features: nightlife, beaches, shopping, art museums
  • 26,337 TripAdvisor reviews of 363 accommodations, 71 attractions and 403 restaurants
South Beach, or SoBe, is Miami Beach's buzziest bit. The vibrant area, with its pastel-hued buildings, hip nightclubs, trendy shops and see-and-be-seen restaurants, attracts socialites and their satellites year-round.
Oahu, Hawaii
  • Resident population: 905,034 Annual visitors: 1,733,000 (est.)
  • Major features: beaches, surfing, Honolulu, luaus, ecotourism
  • 38,387 TripAdvisor reviews of 676 accommodations, 370 attractions and 1,685 restaurants
Say aloha to tropical breezes, oceanfront luaus and iconic Diamond Head on Oahu, the most populated Hawaiian island. Follow in the sandprints of surfing forefather Duke Kahanamoku on Waikiki Beach, visit the royal quarters of Iolani Palace and tour Pearl Harbor.
Bangkok, Thailand
  • Resident population: 5,658,953 Annual visitors: 10,350,000 (est.)
  • Major features: temples, palaces, nightlife
  • 32,047 TripAdvisor reviews of 717 accommodations, 202 attractions and 623 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.
Key West, Florida
  • Resident population: 22,364 (est.)
  • Major features: water sports, beaches
  • 25,067 TripAdvisor reviews of 651 accommodations, 154 attractions and 216 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.
