You might have started off this summer thinking you were going to do some exciting things on your vacation. And you turn around and whoops, it’s Labor Day! Summer is not over yet. There is still time to squeeze out some summer fun. It’s nearing the end of peak season in many vacation destinations, so you might even get some last-minute deals. There are advantages for booking your vacation now.
Less Crowds
Many areas are less crowded towards the end of August. In some areas kids have started back to school, whether in person or remote learning. In other areas, school doesn’t start until after Labor Day. This gives you the opportunity to enjoy the attractions and excursions with less people. That helps with the social distancing too. And if you’re traveling with the kids, don’t forget to download your free Stay For Vacay Activity Book.
More Availability
With all the revenge travel this year, many vacation rentals in popular destinations were nearly impossible to book a stay. More availability opens up in late August as less people are traveling, so you can score a rental at your favorite Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, or whoever is your preferred booking site.
Vacation Opportunities for Remote Workers
Don’t feel guilty about not doing things that you thought you would….but didn’t. You can do them now. Remote workers can extend their time and travel to another area for a flexcation. Get the best of both worlds. Many vacation rentals have workstations so you can take that video call in the morning and enjoy all the vacation destination has to offer when you finish work for the day.
Staycation Fun
Can’t travel far from home? Take a shorter trip or travel closer to home. Jump in the car and do a short drive for a good ole staycation. You get the enjoyment of a relaxing break when you are not able to splurge on a full vacation.
Bucket List
If you are unable to travel this summer due to travel restrictions or concerns about if it is safe to travel, why not start planning early for next year. Create a summer travel bucket list that you can put into play next summer vacation.
So, there you have it. Summer is not over yet. It’s still time for summer fun. Share with us your favorite stay for vacay memories on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.
