East coast from NYC- destination suggestions?

[BevMcMag]

My husband and I have a week and need destination suggestions. We're thinking of heading south towards warmer weather. Any suggestions for a great route?

Thanks!

Welcome aboard the RoadTrip America Forums!

Depending on how much you enjoy driving vs, how much time you want to spend in the warmer weather, you should be looking at roughly the coast of Georgia and the Carolinas for a destination. You could get to Jacksonville, FL in two days of pretty steady driving, or you could take a more relaxed approach and follow the Coastal Route down to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. If you're looking for Southern Charm as well as warmer weather, either Charleston or Savannah (or both) would make good a destination, and either could be reached by using the more scenic I-81 and I-77 rather than the more urban and heavily travelled I-95.
