A recent survey by the Travel Association of America found that 53.6 million adults said they visited a museum or historical site in the past year and 33 million U.S. adults attended a cultural event, such as a theater, arts or music festival. Cultural and historic travelers spend more, stay in hotels more often, visit more destinations and are twice as likely to travel for entertainment purposes than other travelers. Children make great travel companions. Ninety-two million U.S. adults took a child with them on a trip of 100 miles or more from home. Excursia's got beaches galore, such as Daytona Beach, FL , Miami Beach, FL , the Florida Keys , Jacksonville, FL , Hilton Head, SC , Tampa Bay, FL , Fort Lauderdale, FL , and Brunswick and the Golden Isles, GA .
Beaches are one of the most popular travel activities during the summer.
Nearly 50 million travelers say they hit the beaches in June, July and August. Beach appeal is also high for those with children at home and travelers ages 18-34. Gambling is a common component of many Americans' vacations. In 1996, 79.2 million person-trips included gambling as an activity.
