There are many incredible places to visit in California during winter, whether you want a warm beachy getaway or a snowy winter retreat in the mountains.

Yosemite is one of the most magnificent places I have ever been. I feel incredibly lucky to live close enough to pull off a day trip! Visiting during a pandemic is slightly different than an ordinary time.

You read that right. A DAY TRIP to Yosemite! It’s completely possible if you live in the Bay Area, or even within 200 miles of Yosemite.
