Island Getaways in North America

Get away from it all on an island

If it's surrounded by water in the United States, the Caribbean, and in selected locations in Canada, Travels.com is your primary resource for discovering what's available. Choose from romantic island escapes, luxury island vacations, weekend getaways at off-shore resorts, family vacations, boating and fishing vacations, and wilderness retreats - even some relatively deserted islands accessed only by boat or sea plane.

Off The Beaten Path in the Southern California Desert

Southern California's low desert is an area of fascinating contrasts. Visitors here experience views of boulder-covered hills with purple mountain backdrops, crisp blue skies and dramatic red-hued sunsets, open desert plains splashed with purple and yellow wildflowers and championship golf courses, tall palm groves by roadside date stands and gourmet bistros and designer boutiques, and rural camping and hiking retreats, as well as celebrity hideaways and spas.
