Travel Tidbits - Best Airport-to-Beach Accessibility

The plane may have landed, but at some beach destinations the vacation is still hours away. Across 100 well-known coastal getaways, the final airport-to-beach trip ranges from a four-minute drive to nearly three hours on the road.

That contrast is especially sharp in the U.S. Key West ranks third worldwide, while the Hamptons, Rehoboth Beach and the Outer Banks occupy three of the four lowest positions among drivable destinations.

To show how much travel remains after the flight, Mozio, a global ground transportation booking platform, analyzed 100 well-known beach destinations across the U.S., Caribbean, Latin America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific. The study measured Google driving time and distance from each destination’s primary commercial gateway to a representative beach point. The 97 drivable destinations received a combined accessibility score weighted 60% toward travel time and 40% toward distance, while three destinations requiring an additional boat or plane journey were placed in a separate category. The ranking measures the ground transfer only and does not factor in flight availability.

Key Takeaways:

• Cozumel ranks No. 1 overall at 1.2 miles and five minutes from the airport, followed by Sharm El Sheikh at No. 2 and Key West at No. 3. Sharm El Sheikh has the fastest drive at four minutes, but Cozumel wins the combined time-and-distance ranking.

• Seven destinations in the 50 states make the global top 30: Key West at No. 3, San Diego at No. 10, Myrtle Beach at No. 13, Daytona Beach at No. 15, Fort Lauderdale at No. 21, Coronado at No. 24 and Waikiki at No. 30. Including Charlotte Amalie in the U.S. Virgin Islands and San Juan in Puerto Rico raises the total to nine.

• Four destinations in U.S. states place among the global top 15: Key West, San Diego, Myrtle Beach and Daytona Beach.

• Key West is the highest-ranked U.S. destination and one of only six places worldwide where travelers can reach the beach in eight minutes or less. Its 1.8-mile transfer is also the second-shortest drive in the study.

• American destinations occupy three of the bottom four drivable positions. The Hamptons ranks No. 94, Rehoboth Beach No. 95 and the Outer Banks No. 96, with only Manuel Antonio in Costa Rica ranking lower.

• The gap between the highest and lowest U.S. destinations is 134 minutes and 118.2 miles. Reaching the Outer Banks takes more than 23 times as long and covers nearly 67 times the distance of the Key West transfer.

• Of the 35 destinations analyzed across 14 U.S. states, 17 can be reached within 30 minutes and 30 are one hour or less from their gateway airport. Only Gulf Shores, Cape Cod, the Hamptons, Rehoboth Beach and the Outer Banks take longer than an hour.

• Florida has more destinations in the study than any other state, with 11, followed by California with six. South Carolina and Hawaii have three each. Florida places three destinations in the global top 25, while California places two.

• Across all 97 drivable destinations, 55, or 56.7%, are 30 minutes or less from the airport. Eighty-three, or 85.6%, are reachable within an hour, while 14 require more than 60 minutes.

• Sharm El Sheikh has the fastest airport transfer at four minutes, while Manuel Antonio has the longest at 169 minutes. That creates a 165-minute difference, with the longest transfer taking more than 42 times as long as the shortest.

• The top 10 destinations average just 7.9 minutes and 2.4 miles from the airport. The bottom 10 drivable destinations average 112 minutes and 72.4 miles, making the average bottom-10 journey 14 times longer and 30 times farther.

• Distance and travel time do not always move together. The Outer Banks is the farthest destination from its gateway airport at 120 miles, but Manuel Antonio takes the longest to reach, with its 97.6-mile route requiring two hours and 49 minutes.

• Three destinations sit in a separate non-drivable category. Malé requires a 10-minute speedboat transfer, Bora Bora an 18-minute boat journey, and Boracay a 30-minute boat or plane leg beyond the initial flight.

• The 10 most accessible drivable destinations are Cozumel, Mexico (No. 1); Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt (No. 2); Key West, U.S. (No. 3); George Town, Cayman Islands (No. 4); Mallorca, Spain (No. 5); Corfu, Greece (No. 6); Montego Bay, Jamaica (No. 7); Charlotte Amalie, U.S. Virgin Islands (No. 8); Mykonos, Greece (No. 9); and San Diego, U.S. (No. 10).

• The 10 least accessible drivable destinations are Gros Islet, St. Lucia (No. 88); Zanzibar, Tanzania (No. 89); Goa, India (No. 90); Negril, Jamaica (No. 91); Cape Cod, U.S. (No. 92); Saint-Tropez, France (No. 93); the Hamptons, U.S. (No. 94); Rehoboth Beach, U.S. (No. 95); the Outer Banks, U.S. (No. 96); and Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica (No. 97).

Book Nook - Being in the Age of AI: A Guide to Personal Well-Being in the Era of Artificial Intelligence

As students head back to school, AI has quickly become part of the learning experience—but many parents and educators are still grappling with the same question: How do we embrace AI without sacrificing curiosity, critical thinking, and well-being? 

While much of the conversation around AI in schools has focused on cheating and screen time, Poonacha Machaiah, entrepreneur, AI thought leader, and author believes we're missing the bigger opportunity. Used intentionally, AI can personalize learning, improve accessibility, and give students and teachers more time to focus on creativity, problem-solving, and meaningful human interaction. The challenge isn't whether children should use AI—it's helping them learn when to rely on it and when to rely on themselves.

 

Drawing on years of work at the intersection of technology, neuroscience, and human well-being, Poonacha's perspective moves beyond AI hype or fear, showing families how to use these tools while preserving human skills that matter most in his book Being in the Age of AI: A Guide to Personal Well-Being in the Era of Artificial Intelligence.

Book Nook - The Download

 Artificial intelligence can now write our emails, draft our essays, and generate ideas on demand. But what if the most valuable intelligence of our time isn’t artificial at all? That’s the premise of The Download: Train Your Brain. Unlock Your Genius. Create Miracles. (October 6, 2026 | Empress Editions), the new book from Sara Connell, a neuroscience-based transformational coach, five-time bestselling author, and founder of Thought Leader Academy.

In The Download, Connell makes a myth-busting claim: genius is not reserved for a select few, it is trainable. She calls these moments of original insight “Downloads”: when an idea, solution, or breakthrough arrives from beyond ordinary thought. Drawing on peer-reviewed neuroscience—including the brain’s beta, alpha, theta, and gamma states and Stanford research showing that walking boosts creative output by an average of 60 percent—she gives readers a simple, repeatable method for accessing their most creative thinking. At its heart is the “Download Walk”: a free, ten-minute daily practice combining movement, intention, and quiet that almost anyone can do—executives between meetings, parents with their kids, even seated in a chair.

“While the world races to develop artificial intelligence, I want us to be just as invested in developing Human Intelligence. In essence, our creativity, our intuition, our capacity for original thought,” said Connell. “Your best ideas won’t come from working harder or prompting better. They come when you create the conditions to receive them. That’s a skill anyone can train, in minutes a day, for free.”

The book arrives at a moment of extraordinary cognitive demand. The average adult makes an estimated 35,000 decisions a day, spends more than six hours online, and is handing an ever-growing share of thinking to AI—fueling what Connell calls an “epidemic of sameness.” The Download is her research-backed answer: a way out of overwhelm and derivative thinking, and back to clarity, creativity, and original ideas.

Readers will come away knowing how to:

• Shift the brain out of overload and into its most creative states
• Practice the ten-minute Download Walk and make every walk count
• Capture breakthrough insights before they disappear, using the Download Diary
• Beat decision fatigue and brain fog with simple, science-based resets
• Know when to use AI—and when to use their own brain first

 

This is not an anti-AI book. It’s a pro-human one. And Connell knows the power of a Download firsthand: after years of infertility, failed IVF, and the heartbreaking loss of twin boys at birth, the idea that changed everything arrived during a walk—her own mother, then in her early sixties, offered to carry her child, and did. That extraordinary story, featured on Oprah and in national media, became the foundation for Connell’s two decades of work helping people access the ideas that transform their lives.

Hi Rebekah​, After years of infertility, Sara Connell delivered twin sons too early to survive. What happened next made national news: on an ordinary walk, the answer came to her — and her own mother, then in her sixties, offered to carry Sara's child, and did. Oprah interviewed them for the story. That walk changed more than her family. Sara spent the next two decades studying why breakthrough ideas so often arrive when we step away from our desks — Stanford research shows walking boosts creative output by 60% — and built a coaching practice around it. Her new book, The Download, distills it into a ten-minute daily practice. In an interview, she can discuss: The full story behind the Oprah episode and an update on her 15-year-old son. Plus, the moment the idea arrived. What's actually happening in the brain when a "download" hits, and why walking triggers it. How to properly structure a ten-minute “download” walk so it produces ideas instead of rumination. Would you be interested in speaking with Sara or receiving an advance copy?

Book Nook - Cheers!

In Cheers!, children journey across continents, discovering how different cultures share a smile and celebrate together.

A proud husband and dad, Evan wrote Cheers! after realizing his daughter knew how to say “cheers” in Bulgarian (his wife’s native language) before she could even tie her shoes. This sparked a global adventure (mostly from his living room) to learn how cultures around the world celebrate life’s little moments. When he’s not playing human jungle gym for his kids, Evan enjoys chasing golf balls into the woods, cheering on his Virginia Tech Hokies, and tackling life’s adventures with his wife. Evan believes that no matter where you are or where you are from, the world could always use a little more Cheers!

Healthy Habits - Tired of the gym grind? Find your next fitness obsession outdoors

(BPT) - If the same old gym routine has gotten old, or you've let your membership lapse, consider a fresh new way to stay active: Go outside.

Exercising outdoors can boost your physical and mental health, thanks to exposure to vitamin D via sunlight and reduced stress from spending time in nature. Another advantage is the wide variety of activities you can do to match your fitness level. You'll enjoy fresh air and sunshine, the beauty of nature, and getting to know your neighborhood and neighbors a little better.

Note: It's always a good idea to see your doctor before beginning any exercise program, especially if you haven't been active lately.

Late summer and autumn are perfect for being outdoors, so here are some ideas to get you started.

The beauty of walking

Nothing beats walking for simplicity and effectiveness when it comes to supporting your well-being. Beyond a good, supportive pair of shoes, you don't need special equipment, and you can just walk out your door and around your neighborhood.

If you haven't been exercising lately, start slowly and don't walk faster or longer than is comfortable. Gradually increasing your pace and distance can boost your heart rate and improve your stamina. Maintain good posture while walking, with your head up and shoulders back.

Keep walking interesting by changing up your route or inviting friends. Explore local parks or walking paths for even more variety.

Want more challenge? Beyond picking up speed and extending your route, tackle some hills or stairs, pump your arms as you walk or wear a weighted vest.

Stay safe: Bring a water bottle for longer walks, dress comfortably and use sunscreen to protect your skin. Avoid listening to loud music or noise-blocking headphones that can keep you from hearing potential hazards. Keep a fully charged phone with you, and tell someone where you're going for extended treks.

Take it up a notch: Hiking and running

When you're ready for more, consider hiking or running, depending on your fitness level and preferences.

Hiking is all about exploring the natural environment, traversing trails through forests and other terrain including state or national parks. Hiking requires proper gear and safety measures like sturdier footwear, bringing plenty of water and snacks, and being prepared for everything from encounters with insects and wildlife to inclement weather.

Stay safe: Research the park or terrain you're visiting ahead of time, so you know what to bring. Follow park rules and stay on trails, make sure your phone is fully charged before leaving, and tell someone where you're going — and/or hike with a buddy.

Considering running? It's a good idea to see your doctor to ensure you can handle this strenuous activity. Proper footwear is vital for protecting your feet and joints, as is staying on flat, even surfaces. Gentle stretching before and after running can help prevent injury.

Stay safe: Start slowly, stay hydrated and pay attention to your body's signals. Walk as needed, and use rest days so your body can recover.

Be a team player

Miss playing sports you enjoyed as a kid? Always wanted to play one? Being on a team is a fantastic way to get outside, stay active and socialize. Good places to find a softball, baseball or soccer team include parks and rec centers and community education programs. They often have classes and leagues for beginners and/or older adults.

You could try a popular outdoor game to play with a friend or two, like the current pickleball craze — or tennis, basketball, golf or ultimate Frisbee.

Stay safe: Wear protective gear and sunscreen to protect your skin and scalp. Comfortable shoes, protective eyewear and weather-appropriate clothing is also recommended. Warm up and stretch before games to help avoid injury. Stay hydrated and cool down slowly to recover from exertion.

"Life is like a bicycle …"

"… To stay balanced, you must keep moving," or so the saying goes. Cycling is an effective, low-impact way to stay fit and enjoy being outside. If you don't own a bicycle, many cities offer low-cost bike rentals. Some bike shops have rentals or sell refurbished bicycles.

Explore biking trails in your area, and consider joining a local club or bike with a friend. Sites like Traillink.com can help you find trails for biking, hiking and running.

Stay safe: Get your bike checked out and tuned up if it hasn't been ridden for a while. Protect yourself by wearing a bike helmet, and refamiliarize yourself with rules of the road before heading out. You can find bicycle safety tips at NHTSA.gov/road-safety/bicycle-safety.

These are just a few ways to exercise in the great outdoors. Feeling adventurous? Explore other options like swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking and more. There's a whole world of fun activities out there waiting for you.
