North Fork Wineries

Long Island, NY

You can visit this place to relax or even go for wine-tasting, which is what this place is famous for. Enjoy your time tasting white, red, rosé and all types of wine. It is a rather fun trip that you can cherish. 

Long Beach Boardwalk

Long Beach, NY

If you are looking for a beach trip, this is your place. It is one of the simplest, most fun trips you will ever take. Coney Island and Rockaway Beach are also a fun visit. If Long Beach does not suffice, you can go to Corazon de Cuba for dinner, where you can enjoy the fresh mojitos as well. Or if you want the diner experience, go to the diner by the beach, where they serve rainbow milkshakes.
