woman works near the seaAustralian workers receive 20 paid vacation days and eight paid holidays each year, according to a report from the Center for Economic and Policy Research. But are you taking advantage of your paid time off? If you need to recharge your batteries or spark your creativity, consider planning a holiday abroad where you can relax and unwind from your hectic and busy work schedule.

Stay Seaside in South Carolina

Hilton Head Island is a popular seaside destination located in South Carolina. Visitors from all over the world visit to enjoy the sandy beaches, golf on pristine fairways and enjoy sailing on the ocean waters.

The family-friendly beaches of this coastal state are dotted with historic lighthouses that overlook the coastline. The resort town of Hilton Head is home to one of the most iconic lighthouses in the state. The red and white 90-foot lighthouse, known as the Harbor Town Lighthouse, has welcomed tourists from near and far for more than four decades. It has been transformed into a unique museum that displays historical relics and photos that date as far back as 3000 B.C.

Tour New York’s Big Apple

Some of the top must-see destinations in New York include the Empire State Building, Central Park, the Statue of Liberty and Times Square. While you tour all of these landmarks, don’t forget the iconic, but often overlooked, Broadway play. The Broadway district, which sits between 41st and 53rd Street, has more than 40 theaters and venues that host a wide variety of shows, plays and musicals.

When planning your trip, be sure to purchase tickets ahead of time from a site like Telecharge.com. From laugh-out-loud funny bits like “Jersey Boys” or “Mama Mia!” to more serious shows like “Les Miserables,” there’s something for everyone on Broadway.

Discover Maine’s Charm and Wineries

While most people envision B&Bs as quaint, little cottages, Maine’s B&Bs offer luxurious accommodations and are often built within historic mansions and vintage, grandiose homes. The unique and beautiful architecture across Maine will transport you to a simpler time, and your everyday stressors will disappear. The Manor House Inn, a Victorian mansion built in 1887, is perched upon 1.5 acres of beautiful landscape and is located near the wharf and Bar Harbor’s main street. Each room is decorated with elegant decor, and some rooms have double whirlpool tubs for the ultimate in relaxation. Use BedAndBreakfast.com to find a B&B that can suit yours needs during your U.S. vacation.

Just over 20 years ago Maine was home to one single winery. Today, dozens of wineries have popped up across the state. Take a tour along the Maine Wine Trail with the Maine Winery Guild. The tour visits 24 local winery tasting rooms, which produce ciders, meads, fruit and grape wines, distilled spirits and fortified wines.

Explore the Florida Everglades

If you are an adventure-seeker, you will love a trip to the Florida Everglades. Everglades National Park is both a World Heritage site and an International Biosphere Reserve. The landscape is home to rare animal species like the manatee, Florida panther and American alligator. The park, which spans across 1.5 million acres, offers countless opportunities to connect with nature. Visitors can hike, bike or canoe through the park, and nature lovers can enjoy camping in this unique terrain.
