One of the 10 best summer tourism destinations in the U.S. is in Minnesota
One of the 10 best summer tourism destinations in the U.S. is in Minnesota originally appeared on Bring Me The News. With the summer travel season underway, Minnesota has been named home to one of the nation's best summer travel destinations. USA Today's 10Best has compiled a list of the best spots around the U.S. for summer travelers, and Minneapolis made the cut. The publication touts Minneapolis' combination of outdoor activities and cultural experiences as a reason to visit, highlighting its urban bike trails and water activities on the city lakes, as well as attractions like the Minneapolis Institute of Art and Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, which now comes with frozen yogurt. We'd be remiss not to throw in the heaps of outdoor art fairs, an impressive array of theater, and iconic concert venues. It'll certainly be received as good news by businesses that rely on tourism, as there has been an 18% decline in border crossings from Canada, WCCO reports. That's led to fear that President Donald Trump's vitriolic language toward Canada — including tariff threats and the phrase "51st state" — may precipitate a decline in tourism from Canadian travelers. Here's the complete list of the best summer travel destinations around the U.S., according to USA Today's 10Best. Mackinac Island, Mich. Ocean City, N.J. Catalina Island, Calif. Saratoga Springs, N.Y. Philadelphia, Pa. Tybee Island, Ga. Block Island, R.I. Minneapolis, Minn. Cody, Wyo. Amelia Island, story was originally reported by Bring Me The News on May 31, 2025, where it first appeared.
