Warm Weather Winter Escapes
- Aruba: There’s never a bad time to visit the island paradise of Aruba — but New Year’s Eve is one of the most fun. Not only will you get to enjoy balmy Caribbean weather (temperatures average around 87 degrees in December), but on Dec. 31, you’ll be wowed by spectacular fireworks displays all over the destination (Fun fact: in Aruba, the noise of fireworks is thought to rid you of evil spirits, so you can start the new year fresh!). Virtually any Aruba resort you choose is going to have major NYE celebrations happening, from ‘til-the-break-of-dawn parties to mellower, romantic affairs. Check out your Aruba timeshare options.
- Hawaii: Travel to Hawaii has been touch-and-go since the pandemic began, but the state just reopened its borders to nonessential travelers. So, if you’re in the mood for a Hawaiian-style New Year’s Eve celebration, you’re in luck. “Hauʻoli Makahiki Hou!” means Happy New Year in Hawaiian and you’ll hear that sentiment ringing out wherever you go. Waikiki’s annual fireworks show is one of the most popular activities on NYE, with live entertainment, authentic island food, and much more. It’s also free, which is always nice.
