Minnesota’s Favorite Warm-Weather Destinations You’ll Want to Visit Immediately

Mother Nature is just being rude at this point. Yes, we had a mild winter in Minnesota, yes, deep down, I sort of wish we had gotten a bit more snow. But after the nice weather we've had (including that 70-degree day!), to now get dumped on with snow is not cool.

Escape Minnesota's Spring Snow

So if all of this snow and cold has got you down in the dumps and you're craving an escape, I've got just the thing.

I've accumulated a list of the top warm-weather destinations for Minnesotans. And because of all of this snow, you'll want to get there ASAP.

Of course, a last-minute trip is practically impossible for most people. So you can use this list to plan out a warm-weather vacation for next winter or you could use this as a temporary escape from what's out your window right now.

Minnesota's Favorite Warm-Weather Destinations

To determine our favorite warm-weather spots, I looked at a list from Stacker of the most common flights from the Minneapolis - St. Paul International Airport.

Also, all of these flights are domestic flights, no international ones, to keep it more affordable and more logistically possible.

The one I was surprised to not see on the list was Hawaii. However, I don't believe there's even an option for a nonstop flight from MSP to Hawaii, you'd have to have a layover in a place like LA. So that's probably why it's not on the list. Obviously, Hawaii is a beautiful and warm place to travel.

If you'd like your next travels to stay a bit closer to home, though, I have some incredible Airbnbs for you to check out, perfect for this summer.
