Many considered it an autumn destination because of the dramatic transformation that autumn brings throughout the city — Shades of yellow, red, and orange leaves and overwhelmingly peaceful blue waters.
A placid breeze picks up on the beaches stretching along the coastline, making the temperature incredibly perfect.
