We love to cheer for celebrity couples, especially when their travels are #goals. It’s not just the ski slopes, either (though, naturally these two like to go off-piste).
If travel were an Olympic sport, Nina Dobrev and Shaun White would be taking home the gold. Their whirlwind travels have taken them to some of the world’s most stunning destinations. So let’s take a closer look at where they’ve been and what makes these places bucket-list-worthy.
South Africa
Nina and Shaun’s South African adventure was straight out of a wildlife documentary (but with better outfits). They kicked things off in Kruger National Park, where they spotted lions, elephants, and giraffes before capping the day with a legendary African sunset. South Africa’s vibe is a mix of untamed wilderness and cosmopolitan charm. If you’re up for the challenge, cage-diving with great whites and hiking up Table Mountain should be on your itinerary. And let’s talk about the food — juicy braai (South African BBQ), spicy bunny chow (a street food legend), and world-class wines from Stellenbosch? Yes, please.

Maldives
The Maldives is basically a postcard come to life, and Nina and Shaun made the most of it. Staying in an overwater villa (because, obviously), they spent their days paddleboarding, snorkeling alongside manta rays, and indulging in spa treatments with ocean views. Maldives is all about luxury and relaxation, perfect for honeymooners, couples, or anyone who just needs a serious break from reality. Aside from basking on white-sand beaches, you can go night diving, take a dolphin cruise, or dine in an underwater restaurant. And when it comes to food, fresh seafood is king. Maldivian tuna curry and mas huni (a coconut and tuna breakfast dish) are absolute must-tries.

Monaco
Nothing says celebrity like a trip to Monaco, and Nina and Shaun fit right in. They took in the heart-racing action of the Monaco Grand Prix and tested their luck at the Casino de Monte-Carlo. Monaco is where luxury meets adrenaline, offering yacht-filled harbors, designer boutiques, and world-class entertainment. You can enjoy scenic coastal drives along the French Riviera, explore the historic Prince’s Palace, or sip cocktails at glamorous beach clubs. The dining scene is Michelin-star-studded, with indulgences like fresh Mediterranean seafood, decadent pastries, and, of course, Champagne flowing freely.

Aruba
For a Caribbean getaway with endless sunshine, Nina and Shaun hit up Aruba. They basked in the island’s year-round sunshine, went windsurfing in the waters, and even took a romantic horseback ride along the coastline. Aruba’s energy is a perfect mix of laid-back island vibes and vibrant nightlife. Beyond sunbathing, you can explore Arikok National Park’s desert-like terrain, snorkel in crystal-clear waters, or dance the night away in Oranjestad’s lively clubs. The food here is a fusion of Dutch, Caribbean, and South American influences, with dishes like keshi yena (stuffed cheese), fresh ceviche, and crispy pastechi (savory pastries) stealing the show.
