vacation destination

Where travelers head

A vacation destination is a place people travel to for leisure or recreation.

The term appears constantly in travel marketing and tourism: Hawaii remains a top vacation destination.

Any location can become one if people go there to get away—beaches, mountains, cities, theme parks.

The phrase emphasizes the place as an endpoint chosen for pleasure rather than business or necessity.
