Even winter is a warm and sunny time, making it well worth flying to the US for a seaside vacation.
America is also a great winter destination for skiers. There are plenty of ski resorts to suit every taste, and winter is the time to come to the US if you want to learn to ski or snowboard. You can visit museums, interactive parks and other amazing places at any time of the year.
