The 10 Most Resilient U.S. Beach Destinations During COVID-19
It’s no surprise that online travel searches took a hit during lockdown months compared to the same time last year. But, as the sun is getting hotter and most of us are still practicing a certain level of self-isolation, there’s nothing like dreaming of sandy beaches and warm waters to keep us going. While the lockdown period brought about 64% fewer travel-related searches overall in the USA, a new study shows that some sunny destinations managed to keep vacation seekers’ interest going while staying more popular than others. Without further ado, these are the U.S. beaches that experienced the smallest drops in Google searches compared to last spring:
Outer Banks, North Carolina
Honolulu, Hawaii
Nantucket, Massachusetts
Kauai, Hawaii
Maui, Hawaii
The Florida Keys, Florida
Hilo, Hawaii
