Orlando, Florida
Orlando's a must for many families who can't resist the plethora of theme parks and proximity to sandy beaches at pretty much any time of year. There's so much to do and see, and balmy temperatures are almost guaranteed.
San Diego, California
This southern California city may very well be considered the ultimate family vacation spot. With Sea World, a world-class zoo, beaches, and proximity to Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm and a wealth of other attractions, it's the perfect place to soak up some rays in winter.
Nassau, Bahamas
Festivals, beaches, and pirate adventures await kids and families in Nassau. You'll quickly see why George Washington once called the Bahamas the "Isles of Perpetual June."

Viva Miami! Latin flair permeates a nature-rich, culturally diverse vacation paradise, where you'll have plenty of kid-friendly attractions to choose from, plus great shopping and legendary beaches.
Austin, Texas
A visit to the Lone Star state's capital will warm you with unique historical experiences like a vibrant music scene, living history museums, and plenty of barbeque. Winter temperatures hover in the 50s and 60s, and crowds are sparse, so you'll have lots of space to spread out in.
Phoenix, Arizona
Winter is simply a fantastic time to visit one of the southwest's most vibrant cities as cacti, amusement parks, museums, and natural beauty will transport you to warm, peace, and calm in a jiffy.
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
When the main attraction is a beach that stretches for miles, and offers the decidedly non-flashy pleasures of swimming, seashell-collecting, and catching a much-needed snooze, what more could you ask for?
Oahu, Hawaii
Hang ten in one of the most popular of the unfailingly pleasing Hawaiian islands, where you can visit Waikiki, Honolulu, and Pearl Harbor and still get in a good sandcastle-building session on the beach. The Dole Pineapple Plantation and Polynesian Cultural Center are especially appealing for kids.
