COVID-19
Requirements
The CDC’s Order requiring proof of vaccination for non-U.S. citizen nonimmigrants to travel to the United States is still in effect. For more information see Requirement for Proof of COVID-19 Vaccination for Air Passengers.
There’s not many places in the U.S. where you can be soaking up the sandy beaches of the Pacific Coast, drive out into the desert, and sip your way through wine country all within a day’s time (although I wouldn’t recommend that rushed of an itinerary).
Continue on a little further north and you’ll swap classic palm tree-lined Southern California beaches for Northern California’s rugged and wild coastline, enchanting Redwood forests and yes—more wine country! There’s something for everyone to love here —but also, it can be overwhelming trying to tackle it all in one trip. Spoiler alert: you can’t.
Before You Leave the United States
Make sure to plan ahead:
- Get up to date with your COVID-19 vaccines before you travel.
- Find out when you can get your booster and where to get a vaccine or booster.
- COVID-19 vaccines are effective at protecting people—especially those who are boosted— from getting seriously ill, being hospitalized, and even dying.
- Follow all requirements of transportation operators (such as airlines, cruise lines, buses) and any requirements, including mask wearing, proof of vaccination, or testing at your destination.
- Requirements in other countries may differ from U.S. requirements. If you do not follow your destination’s requirements, you may be denied entry and required to return to the United States.
- If you have a weakened immune system or are at increased risk for severe disease, take multiple prevention steps to provide additional layers of protection from COVID-19 even if you are up to date with your COVID-19 vaccines.
- Talk to your healthcare provider about your risk before travel and consider delaying travel to areas with high COVID-19 levels. Even if you are up to date, you should know what precautions to take.
- If you will be visiting someone who is at higher risk of getting very sick from COVID-19, learn how to protect them.
Testing
RECOMMENDED
- Consider getting tested with a viral test as close to the time of departure as possible (no more than 3 days) before travel.
- Make sure you know your test results before travel.
- Don’t travel if your test result is positive.
- Find a U.S. COVID-19 testing location near you or use a self-test.
- If you already had COVID-19 within the past 90 days, see specific testing recommendations.
- Make sure you know your test results before travel.
Movement Restrictions
- Is a curfew in place? No
- Are there restrictions on intercity or interstate travel? No
Mask Requirement
- A mask covering your mouth and nose is mandatory while using public transportation (including flights to/from Spain), in a pharmacy, or in a medical facility.

You could easily spend a lifetime in the US and still feel like you’ve just scratched the surface.
It’s epic on every scale. After all, this is a place where you can watch the thunderous spectacle of Niagara Falls, trek through the soaring Black Hills of South Dakota and cruise along California’s glorious Pacific Coast; where you can ski at Lake Tahoe, go cattle ranching in the Midwest and imbibe live jazz in New Orleans.
The options, it seems, are endless.
