THE BEST THINGS TO DO IN JUNE ACROSS THE U.S.
Experience New York State’s Varied Landscape
From the bustling, skyscraper-lined streets of New York City to the quiet, open country of the upstate, New York has endless opportunities for travelers. Head to Ithaca to enjoy the serene atmosphere of the Finger Lakes. After exploring the region’s hiking trails and waterfalls, you should pay a visit to some of the many vineyards.
If you’re interested in experiencing the Big Apple, attending the NYC Restaurant Week is one of the best things to do in June. With a reputation for world-class cuisine, NYC hosts a biannual restaurant week—one at the beginning of the year in January and a second halfway through the year in June. Hundreds of the city’s top chefs will dish out special menus offering a range of cuisine for an unusually low price. Take advantage of this unique opportunity to experience the best of NYC’s food scene without having to break the bank.
Often referred to as simply The Hamptons, Southampton is another favorite New York destination during the summer. Most visitors favor this affluent town because of the gorgeous beaches and flourishing arts scene. Devote your vacation time to lounging on the white sands of popular Cooper Beach or try surfing on Ditch Plains Beach. In the evenings, you can explore the many bars and restaurants that give The Hamptons its reputation for a thrilling nightlife.
Jam Out At The Chicago Blues Festival
A much-anticipated annual event, the Chicago Blues Festival is the largest free blues event in the world. For three days, you can hear big-name stars of the genre and lesser-known acts perform on four different stages in Millennium Park. Past performers that have graced the stage include Ray Charles, B.B. King, and Rhiannon Giddens. Take advantage of this free event with outstanding performers, then spend some time exploring the city of Chicago.
Head West To Explore The Great Outdoors
The western part of the U.S. is one of the most beautiful places to visit in June. With unparalleled landscapes, the states of Wyoming and Colorado are particularly worth traveling to in the summertime as there are tons of exciting things to do. Outdoor adventurers will love hiking the many trails in both states and relaxing among beautiful mountain towns.
Bask In The Beauty Of The Washington Coast
The West Coast is another one of our favorite places to visit in June. Along the shores of Washington state, you can partake in whale watching, go fishing, explore the mountains, and much more. The small towns that dot the Washington coast provide the perfect setting for a peaceful getaway. Quaint, locally owned shops and restaurants can be found throughout the region, allowing visitors the chance to experience local culture.
Colette’s Bed & Breakfast: Stay at this oceanfront estate to take advantage of the beach and the beautiful Strait of Juan de Fuca nearby.
