Our top beach road trips for this summer

Summer is coming and we don't know about you, but we're ready to hit the sand. Summer is the perfect time to take to the open road and visit new places, and there are plenty of beaches that are a perfect road-trip distance away from Charlotte. Here are Toyota of N Charlotte's top four picks for the best beaches to visit this summer!

Outer Banks: The Outer Banks are close - Charlotte is about six hours away, so it's a perfect weekend road trip. While there you can explore more than 200 miles of shoreline for swimming, walking, surfing, skimboarding, fishing, and watching the sky change colors at sunrise and sunset. You can also check out where Blackbeard fought his last battle, as well as where the Wright Brothers first took flight.

Ocean City: Ocean City is in Maryland, about an 8-hour road trip from Toyota of N Charlotte. It's famed for its wide, sandy beaches, delicious crab dishes, and an incredible boardwalk that features arcade games, souvenirs, and even an amusement park.

Hilton Head: Head South to Hilton Head - it's in South Carolina and about four hours from Charlotte. The beaches there are hard-packed so they're perfect for walking, biking, and running. You'll also find boutique hotels and fine dining, as well as spas and golf courses situated around the island.

Destin: If you want to feel like you're somewhere in the Bahamas, make the 9.5-hour road trip down to Destin, FL. The waters are clear blue, the white sand is sugar-soft, and the fishing and swimming are out of this world. Plus, you'll get a break from the waves in the warm, calm Gulf of Mexico.

Whether you want to prep your car for a summer road trip to the beach or find a new Toyota that's ready for the open road, we can help! Call Toyota of N Charlotte today at (704) 875-9199.

Our top beaches for your summer road trip

Are you ready for summer road trip season? We know we are - there's nothing quite like hitting the open highway to a new destination. If your fun in the sun involves the beach, we're here to help - check out Toyota of Clermont's list of the top East Coast beaches to hit this year.

Sanibel Island: Sanibel Island is a family-friendly Florida beach that's renowned for its shelling and picturesque beaches. There are nature trails for hiking and biking, picnic areas for lunch, and the famed Lighthouse Beach. Sanibel Island is four hours from Clermont, which means it's a great weekend road trip for your summer getaway.

Destin: Destin is another Florida beach located in the panhandle, and it's FAMOUS for its clear blue water, white sugar sand, and spring break atmosphere. It's a great road trip destination to break out your fishing poles - there are huge amounts of Red Snapper and Grouper offshore - plus warm, calm waters to swim in. Destin is about six hours from Clermont.

Golden Isles: The Golden Isles are a set of barrier islands in Georgia that include St. Simon's Island, Sea Island, Little St. Simon's Island, and Jekyll Island. They're famed for their long stretches of beach scattered with driftwood, as well as picturesque towns full of shopping and dining. The Golden Isles are a four-hour road trip from Clermont.

Outer Banks: Trying to get out of state for your next road trip and get a change of scenery? Head north - about 12 hours, to be exact. This road trip might be best split into halves (and you can stop in Georgia or South Carolina and do some exploring). You're headed to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. There are 200+ miles of beach to comb, plus tons of swimming, fishing, surging, skimboarding, and boating opportunities.

Need to find the right Toyota for your road trip or need to get your current car ready for the highway? Call Toyota of Clermont today at (352) 404-7000.

road trip tips

What to do when the highway turns into a parking lot just after you cross the border in Montana and there is no cell phone reception:

Rule number one: stay with your vehicle. It’s the first rule of Exodus at Burning Man for good reason.

Speculate on whether the traffic is caused by road construction or an accident.

Speculate on what sort of accident would turn the highway into a parking lot.

Stay calm. Zombies are only in the movies.

Move the car into the shade or get out your umbrella to shade yourself from the sun or both. Rain or shine, an umbrella can be your shield.

Roll down the windows and turn the car off. You don’t really need to be running it when you can see traffic is fully stopped up around the bend and you have plenty of time to turn it on if traffic starts moving.

Have a snack.

Debate the merits of following the cars taking an unmarked gravel side road in an unfamiliar area. Don’t take a road when you can’t chart where it goes because there is no cell reception. (Turns out these cutters were all stopped by emergency responders and made to wait)

Jump out and take pictures of wild flowers. Then debate whether the flowers are in a ditch, gully, gulch, etc. Later, scratch the bites on your ankles from the unknown insects that were hiding in the flowers when you wading into them.

Exercise. Squats, kicks, lunches, and if you brought your exercise band, go crazy.

Have another snack.

Rule Number one: stay with your vehicle. Don’t be that guy who makes his car wait and further gum up traffic because he had to go back to the rest stop to flirt with that hottie over there. Don’t be the guy.

Road Trip Tips

Planning before a road trip is a good idea for a perfect adventure. You should take the necessary precautions to ensure the safety of you, your friends, and your family. However, trying to anticipate everything the roads have to offer can’t always make for the perfect trip. However, the fear of unfortunate accidents should not be a reason to avoid having fun with friends on the roads. With perfect planning and sheer caution, you could still cruise the roads and enjoy memorable picnics outdoors with friends and family.

The following are eleven tips one should consider while planning for a road trip:

Check to ensure vehicle condition is excellent

Bring a GPS for directions

Keep the tank above half, filling it fully before leaving

Stop to take occasional breaks

Bring plenty of snacks and drinks

A first aid kit is a must-have in case of minor accidents

A separate kit for emergencies is a good idea

Make sure you keep up with weather conditions

All passengers must remain buckled

Non-distracting entertainment for all travelers

Bring jumper cables and tools to do minor repairs

Accidents are common on roads, and getting a relevant car accident lawyer to aid in legal matters is not easy. Thankfully, there are reputable firms like Robert J. DeBry & Associates, whose reputation in offering the best car accident lawyers is unparalleled.

They will help build personal injury claims and seek compensation for the victim's damages. The residents of Utah and their neighbors are lucky because they have Robert J. DeBry & Associates, one of the best law firms in the state. It is home to the best lawyers thanks to its outstanding 250 years of experience.

Tips for planning a car camping trip

Are you planning a car camping trip to hit the road and see the Great Outdoors this summer? Car camping is an efficient and affordable way to do it, and Toyota of N Charlotte is here to give you our top hacks on how to make the most of it. Don't leave home without this list of car camping road trip tips!

Tip #1: Ensure you can get comfy. If you're going to be sleeping in your car for more than a handful of nights (or even just that), you should look into a car air mattress. Measure both the mattress and your car to ensure it'll fit and don't forget to bring sheets and blankets. You might also want to order window screens so you can let nice weather in but keep bugs and other pests out, and we also recommend looking into a car tent (which attaches to your vehicle) if you need additional indoor space on your car camping trip.

Tip #2: Don't run your car battery down. It may seem like your car is an easy way to light your campsite, charge your devices, and/or play music. However, this is a surefire way to drain your battery and end up needing a jump, a dead battery, or both. Instead, invest in a solar-powered charger for devices, solar-powered stakes or string lights for your campsite, and a solar-powered radio or speaker to play music.

Tip #3: Actually plan your trip. Don't just assume you can pull over and set up camp on the side of the road. You should plan your trip and know what campsites are available to you, or even book sites ahead of time (especially in popular areas and seasons). Staying in a campsite means you've got security and efficiency on your side, and you'll also have access to amenities like running water, electricity, trash, bathrooms, showers, and more.

Need car camping accessories or want more tips for car camping this summer? Toyota of N Charlotte has got you covered. Call us today at (704) 659-2025, or stop by and see us. We're open seven days a week at 13429 Statesville Road, just off I-77 at exit 23 in Huntersville.

Doing a road trip from Vegas to all the Utah national parks and multiple state parks and national monuments next month. Anyone got any tips or any places I should check out? I probably have most of the open spaces saved but lesser known places are good to know and even more so I'll take some food recommendations or just general tips :)

We are renting a jeep so dirt roads are fine ❤️

Just a photo of my cat watching travel videos with me in preparation, for visibility's sake.
