Get involved in family-friendly games and rides, have some barbecues, steaks and pizza at the restaurants in Jenkinson’s Boardwalk, and get your kids acquainted with the penguins, seals, and sharks at the Jenkinson’s Aquarium. You will never run out of fun family activities at Point Pleasant!

  • Eat, learn and enjoy at Cape Ann, Massachusetts

Whatever kind of adventure you’re after – whether maritime, cultural or culinary – you can find it all at Cape Ann. Give your kids a fun and education spring break through whale watching (where they learn about the different types of whales, their ecosystem and how to protect them) or take them out for a walk through history at the Gloucester Harbor where they learn about Gloucester’s history and contemporary culture.  Lastly, have an awesome gastronomic exploration at some of the finest restaurants in Cape Ann. They include Woodman’s, an award-winning seafood restaurant, and the Duckworth’s Bistrot which is known for their fresh, locally sourced, seasonal fare.

  • Enjoy balloon rides in Sonoma City

Sonoma County is gorgeous year-round, but it’s more special during the spring season where people can freely explore the green-golden outdoors. There are numerous parks where families can hike, bike, learn about the wildlife and its preservation, enjoy horseback riding, and more. Beach tours and water treks are available too! But the most anticipated family activity of all is the hot air balloon over Sonoma Wine Country. Take a  birds-eye view over the rolling hills, mountains, farms, and gardens.

 

  • Be amazed by the Tallest Waterfall in Portland

For the best of nature experience, take your kids to the tallest waterfall in Oregon. While you can view the beautiful Multnomah Falls from the highway, to check out the amazing view of the two-tiered falls in full length, you have to head to the carved-out opening in the rock face. For an even closer view, walk a several hundred feet up to the Benson Bridge. There’s a visitor centre and restaurant where your whole family can rest and dine after a fun yet exhausting walk.
