Valentine Vacation Getaways

It's almost time for Valentine's Day again.  Coastal Living has come up with their top 10 list of the best places to take your loved one in the middle of February.  Not surprisingly, all of their destinations involve water in one form or another. Here's their take on where to go with your sweetheart next week-

1. Naples, Florida - white sand, warm water, and a sophisticated art scene
2. New York, New York - more romantic cliches than you can shake a stick at
3. Barbados - classic Caribbean paradise featuring the best of English culture
4. Sausalito, California - a little eccentric city full of cafes and art galleries
5. Niagara Falls, Ontario - classic beauty covered in ice
6. Fairhope, Alabama - off the beaten path but full of art and antiques on Mobile Bay
7. Cannon Beach, Oregon - rugged mountains, 9 miles of beach, and more art
8. St. Michaels, Maryland - lots of history and less tourists than in the summertime
9. La Jolla, California - this "jewel" is great for surfing, sand and shopping
10. Outer Banks, North Carolina - an easy place to find your own secluded beach
