Explore the Continental U.S. | The Costco Traveler Blog

You've thought of us for rental cars and big annual vacations to places like Hawaii and Mexico. Did you know you can build your own Costco Travel package to many destinations in the continental United States? From Key West to San Diego, we have you covered! Here are some experiences recommended by Costco travelers.

Zion National Park is just one of the picturesque adventures available.

U.S. National Parks

The beauty and majesty of America can be found in our U.S. National Parks. Explore Yellowstone in Wyoming and see “Old Faithful”, one of over 10,000 hot springs and geysers to be found in the park. With over two hundred miles of trails, rich with pristine lakes and alpine terrain, Grand Teton National Park is a haven for hikers. If you want a hot springs experience, Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas hosts The Buckstaff Bathhouse and The Quapaw Bathhouse, both offering visitors a chance to submerge and relax in the thermal water.

In Nashville, the music scene reigns supreme.

Nashville, Tennessee

If music is your scene, we’d like to recommend a visit to Nashville, also known as Music City U.S.A. Whether you are visiting Nashville for the music, the expansive academic community, historic battlefields, the collection of museums, or maybe the Jack Daniels Distillery, Nashville has something for everyone. If you like spicy food, try the hot chicken, a taste that is uniquely Nashville, with a spicy kick on a bed of white bread with a pickle. Yum!

The San Antonio River Walk is a wonderful way to spend a morning, afternoon, or even an entire day.

San Antonio, Texas

People remember San Antonio for the Alamo, but this Texas city offers so much more. Take a stroll along the beautiful River Walk, lined with lush foliage and colorful umbrellas. There’s a progressive art scene to be explored and experienced. With attractions such as Six Flags, Guinness World Records Museum, and Confluence Park (and a whole lot more!), San Antonio is a fun family destination for kids of all ages. You can find history, culture, and heritage in just about every corner of this remarkable city.

Myrtle Beach featuring the SkyWheel, a bright beacon at night.

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

If you’ve always wanted to see the sunrise over the Atlantic Ocean, spend fabulous fun-filled days at the beach, and experience 60 miles of coastline, a vacation to Myrtle Beach will check all of those off and more. Relax on the beach. Shop at high-end retailers, specialty boutiques, and outlets, they are all available. For amazing views of the beach, take a ride on the 187-foot tall SkyWheel. In Myrtle Beach, there is something for everyone, and the southern hospitality is free.

San Diego, California

Welcome to San Diego, also known as California's beach city. Even though San Diego is a vibrant metropolis, it is also a destination perfect for all types of vacationers. You’ll find that San Diego is a place filled with a bounty of activities, restaurants, and culture. San Diego is renowned for its laid-back beach culture, Cali-Baja cuisine, wines, craft beers, golf, spas, and of course the San Diego Zoo. Skateboard legend Tony Hawk, Olympic medalist Shaun White and surfers Rob Machado and Jen Smith call it home. Musician Jason Mraz even has a coffee plantation here! But San Diego’s 70 miles of glorious beaches are usually first to come to mind.

This southernmost point in the United States is closer to Cuba than it is to Miami.

Key West, Florida

Welcome to the southernmost point in the United States, Key West, Florida. Located at the very end of the Florida Keys, Key West is Florida's tropical paradise. An appealing blend of history, romance, natural beauty, cultural diversity, and architecture. Key West is a reflection of the best of both Bahamian and Cuban heritage. Here you can visit historic sites, go diving, fishing, participate in water sports, go golfing or shopping. Don’t plan to go to bed early either… or you’ll miss the sidewalk cafes and open-air bars that fill the streets at night.
