OAKLAND, CA, (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — OAKLAND, CA — Sunset, the defining lifestyle brand of the modern American West, has announced its fourth annual Sunset Travel Awards, honoring the West’s top destinations for lodging, food and drink, and attractions and activities.

The Sunset Travel Awards will help steer the magazine’s 5 million readers to the best destinations to match their taste, budget, and interests. Award winners will be revealed in the August 2018 issue and on Sunset.com.
