NEW YORK (AP) For a place known for its beaches and its manicured lawns, New Jersey is about as close to a desert as you can get.
But if you’re willing to spend a few hours in the sun, there are some great places to spend time.
Here are 10 of the best places to take in the sunshine in New York City.
1.
New York Beach, New Yorks Beach The first time I visited New York’s iconic beachfront in March, I thought I’d never see it again.
But after a week, it was like I’d been there a million times.
This is the most popular tourist destination in the United States, but it also has a very distinct vibe.
People from all over the world flock here to experience the best views and views of the Statue of Liberty and Manhattan skyline.
It’s a place where you can’t get lost and where you’re sure to find something.
2.
West Palm Beach, Florida When I visited Florida in the summer of 2014, I spent three days in the tropics, which I’d not been in for a while.
I loved it.
And when I came back, it felt even more magical.
I’ve never been to West Palm as I was in Florida.
But in this one-of-a-kind place, you can experience a unique experience every time you visit.
It is one of the only places in the world where you don’t have to walk long distances to get to a certain point.
3.
New Orleans, Louisiana I remember visiting this New Orleans beach resort in March 2014.
It was one of my favorite stops in the state, and I’m glad I did.
There is an extensive array of beach and indoor activities, from hiking to snorkeling, and it’s a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of New Orleans and enjoy the scenery.
4.
New Hampshire, New England I’ve visited New Hampshire once in my life, in January 2015, when I spent the day there.
I was blown away by the landscape and its stunning natural beauty.
It took me nearly four days to get here, but I didn’t give it up because I love the outdoors.
New England has a lot to offer, including great restaurants, great beaches and amazing waterfalls.
5.
Long Island, New Zealand I remember when I first went to Long Island in the spring of 2017.
It felt like my first trip to a different country.
And I loved the sights, sounds and smells of this island nation.
When I got to the island, I was overwhelmed by the incredible view of the harbor and the beautiful sunset.
I had never been here before.
6.
North Carolina, North Carolina The best part about living in North Carolina is the incredible variety of outdoor activities.
I can’t think of a more diverse place in the country than North Carolina.
The beaches, the parks, the history, the beaches are simply incredible.
7.
Vermont, Vermont When I first visited Vermont in the winter of 2014-15, it seemed like the perfect place for a long weekend.
But the first week was filled with excitement.
This place is like a little city, where you never know what’s going to happen.
It doesn’t matter if you get into a big fight or if a big storm hits.
If you can plan for the worst, it can turn out pretty good.
8.
Washington, D.C. I don’t remember living in Washington, DC, when it was a little town called Georgetown, which is still there.
But since moving here, I have loved every minute of it.
I am always ready to explore new places, and Washington has been the best place to do it. 9.
New Mexico, New Mexico The people and scenery here are simply amazing.
I always have a great time walking through the desert, even if I’m in a hurry.
I love going hiking, going to the beaches and having the best time I’ve had in New Mexico in years.
10.
Hawaii, Hawaii I can see it in my mind when I look at Hawaii.
I think about how beautiful this beautiful place is and how it feels like you’re in a different world.
I mean, I don and have never been.
But Hawaii is one place that makes me feel like I can do anything.
