1. Napa Valley, California
Enjoy beautiful vineyards and country drives, displaying all of the colors that autumn brings. Not only will you get to indulge in delicious meals, but you’ll experience the most beautiful views while doing so.

Celebrate Thanksgiving at America’s first seaside resort, Congress Hall. Dinner spots sell out quickly, so reserve yours ahead of time. While Cape May is most known as a shore town, the fall season emphasizes its hiking trails through the beach and woods. Get the best of both worlds and see the fall foliage and beach waves.
3. St. Augustine, Florida
If you were planning on a beach view coming with your turkey this year, consider St. Augustine. This small beach town is full of unique Spanish Colonial Architecture. St. Augustine 27th annual Night of Lights is taking place every evening from November 14 to January 2021 this year.
