Kiawah Island

If you usually head out East with the family, Kiawah is a great substitute. With southern food (corn bread at every meal), you'll want to be with people who love you unconditionally. When you're not golfing or playing tennis, take a skeet shooting lesson and discover which of your siblings has a secret proclivity for violence. Go on a guided kayaking tour and regret it when they tell you to beware of alligators.
