Guys need a break from everything, too. If you feel a bit burned out or if you just want to spend more time with your buddies, it’s time to plan a nice mancation. No matter where you go, as long as you’re with your buds, you’ll have a great time, but these destinations and these ideas will make your mancation even better:
Hawaii water sports
If you and the boys are into beach, sea and extreme watersports, Hawaii is one of the best destinations for your mancation. Maui, for instance, is speckled with awesome resorts as well as different activities you can try out. From surfing and sailing to diving and fishing, you can do it all in Maui. Kite surfing is probably one of the most beloved activities here, so make sure to give it a try. And even if you want to get off the grid completely, you can do it at one of the island’s many remote tropical beaches.
Florida golfing
Florida is known for many things—crazy Miami nightlife, huge Everglades gators and beautiful beaches all over the coast. However, there’s one other thing this sunny state can be proud of which is golf. With hundreds of courses all over the state, you can go play some of the most amazing and professional golf in your life in Florida. If you and the guy love this elegant sport, you can book an all-inclusive stay at any of the resorts and have a perfectly relaxing and fun mancation. Resorts like The Biltmore in Coral Gambles, Hammock Beach in Palm Coast and Streamsong Resort near Lakeland are all lux hotels with even better golfing, so take your pick.
Canada camping
If you’re looking for a true bonding experience between men, you must head into nature and have a wild camping trip. Armed with just your trusted switch blade knife, you can head to Canada and try surviving in nature. There are campgrounds away from bears, but you’re going to have to secure everything else yourself—build a shelter, catch fish, cook meals, craft items and protect your camp. Of course, you can sneak in a few bottles of whiskey to warm up and enjoy after dinner. And even if you choose a more civilized campground, you can still live out your wild days with the guys.
Euro trip in a supercar
If you have time for a longer vacation, you should take your trip to Europe and have a small Eurotrip. To make this adventure even more special, you can rent some of the best supercars in the world to feel like true rock stars. On your adventure, you can drive all the best roads in Europe, taking you over dramatic mountains, across raging rivers and next to serene lakes. If you can’t choose a road to hit up, start with the magical Amalfi Coast in Italy and end your adventure on the German Autobahn, a crazy highway without any speed limit.
Safari in South Africa
Did you ever come face to face with a lion? What about a rhino? Do you want to do it? Well, you and your best buds can do just that in a South African safari adventure. This beautiful country has all the most popular wildlife to see on a safari, but also so much more to offer to adventurous men. South Africa has crazy-good surfing, scuba diving and fishing, all of them providing you with a ton of adrenaline and many awesome memories. The most hardcore men can even try out diving with sharks and see how manly they feel when all there is between them and a great white shark is a small cage. For a more relaxing part of your mancation, you can book a wine tasting and tour some of the best vineyards in the country. Or you can hit up the beach, hit the lounger and relax with a beer in your hand.
Enjoy some beer
If you and the boys are not watching your physique, you can organize a fun beer tour around your country or around the world. You know all the best breweries in your country, but if you want to go worldwide, opt for breweries in Australia where you can have some top-notch craft beer. Or you can go to Germany and drink in some of the most famous beer gardens in the world. The UK is also a great beer tourism destination where you can hit up many pubs and drink with British lads. Another European destination for beer lovers is the Netherland. This is the birthplace of Heineken, Amstel, Bavaria and Hertog Jan—all legendary beers all over the world. Just get ready for plenty of hangovers and some serious abstinence when you get back home.
Nothing brings guys together like a wild adventure so make sure to share yours with all your closest friends. If you choose any of these destinations, expect a killer vacation full of fun, excitement and brotherly love.
