Meet Your Travel Advisor
Hi, I’m Nikki Dowd, founder of Get Your Beach On Travel. I’m a former special-education teacher turned full-time travel professional, a wife to a cancer survivor, and a mom to an energetic little boy.
My passion is simple: helping every traveler—families, couples, and guests with special needs—experience the world with ease and confidence.
My Journey
For years I balanced teaching and the corporate grind, but when my husband’s health challenges required more family time, I knew I needed a career that offered flexibility, purpose, and connection.
Travel had always inspired me, so I swapped lesson plans for itineraries and built a business dedicated to inclusive, stress-free vacation planning.
What I Bring to Your Trip

Family & Accessibility Expertise – As a Certified Autism Travel Professional, I understand how to arrange accessible accommodations, sensory-friendly activities, and kid-approved adventures.
-
Cruises & Resorts – From Caribbean sailings to luxury all-inclusive escapes, I partner with top brands like Sandals, Beaches, Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, and Exoticca Tours to unlock exclusive perks and pricing.

Personalized Service – I take the time to learn your travel style and craft an itinerary that feels effortless and uniquely yours.
