Capricorn’s personality, characteristics and travel traits

Despite their mystical zodiac animal, the sea goat, Capricorns are often grounded in logic.

Ruled by Saturn, Capricorns are known for being self-reliant or even introverted, often creating their own well-crafted nests to recharge. Exceptionally loyal, they can be fiercely protective of their herd. Soft for some, but you wouldn’t want to be on the wrong side of their horns.

Capricorns are confident travelers who often like investing time curiously researching their destination. Once they arrive, they’ll soak up the sights at their own pace. Ambitious and down to earth – typical for earth signs – they’re the kind of people to organize the road trip and remember to bring the snacks.

According to the zodiac, Capricorns travel well with fellow Capricorns and earth signs, such as Taurus and Virgo. Time to dust off the itinerary planner.

Top travel destinations for Capricorn

Embark on a dream vacation set up by the stars. Read on to explore our top five destinations in our travel guide based on the Capricorn zodiac sign.

Lisbon

Worldly Capricorns feel most at home where culture is thriving. Lisbon, Portugal, is one such location, going back to the 7th century BC . A capital city of technicolor, castles and custard tarts, Lisbon is practically overflowing with beautiful places to see.

Home to the oldest bookstore in the world, Livraria Bertrand, Capricorns will love exploring every treasure here. The city is bathed in sunlight on the Mediterranean Sea, its beauty and climate often compared to the west coast of California.

We recommend a short but sweet one-hour road trip from Lisbon to the turquoise beaches of Cascais. Take the scenic route following the N6 west for 30 km.

Nashville

Lift your spirits and feed the soul with the earth-shaking music culture of Nashville, Tennessee. Creative Capricorns will devour a city break in Music City, whether they play music themselves or simply wish to absorb all the trivia.

Take a walk around the lyrical Music Row district, home to legendary recording studios and museums. The Historic RCA Studio B is one of the best attractions in the area.

The renowned record studio produced various hits from Elvis, the Everly Brothers and fellow Capricorn, Dolly Parton. Dolly, the beloved country star that she is, even got away with accidentally driving  into the side of the building once.

All that music history can work up an appetite. Check out some of the best restaurants in Nashville during your visit.

Edinburgh

Cozy, romantic and teeming with history, wander to your heart’s content along the cobbled streets of Edinburgh.

Scotland’s capital city is full of old-world charm all year round. Enjoy cherry blossoms in the spring, the world-famous Edinburgh Fringe Festival in the summer and golden amber leaves in the fall.

Capricorn season in Edinburgh is particularly magical. Glowing lights and warm beverages radiate from the festive Christmas market. Come the 31^st of December, Hogmanay celebrations ring in the New Year with a spectacular show of street theatre, live music and fireworks. It’s a feast for the eyes that goes back to Viking traditions of marking the December winter solstice.

Beartooth Highway

Ever wanted to visit Yellowstone National Park? Consider extending your trip with an alpine adventure on one of the most scenic drives in the US.

Also known as the ‘Highway to the Sky’, the Beartooth Highway is a National Scenic Byways ‘All-American Road’. This breathtaking route takes you 68 miles  through untouched forests and mountain landscapes from Red Lodge, Montana, to Yellowstone in Wyoming.

Reaching heights of 10,000 feet above sea level, the road is the highest elevation highway in the Northern Rockies.

Billings is your closest city to Red Lodge if you’re flying in or renting a car for the road trip. The entire route can take three hours to an entire day depending on how long you spend at each stop along the way. It’s usually open to vehicles from Memorial Day in May to early October.

Milos & Polyaigos 

The zodiac has roots in ancient Greek mythology, so a trip to Greece is a sure win. Capricorns are symbolized by the sea goat, a make-believe creature which has the body of a goat and the tail of a fish.

Off the coast of Milos, Polyaigos is the largest uninhabited island in the Aegean Sea. That is, except for the herds of goats.

Today, visitors can explore the turquoise beaches of Polyaigos with a boat tour from Milos. Discover island caves, crystal clear waters and pristine bays. Be sure to look out for fellow ‘sea goats’ that still live on the cliffs.
