Are you looking for a sunny destination? 
 
Perhaps you might even want a guarantee that it will be sunny all the time or at least most of the time. Here are a few places that come pretty close to that all sun, all the time guarantee. And not surprisingly, they’re mostly in the Southwest. 
 
There’s Yuma, Arizona, which boasts it’s the sunniest city in the U.S. followed by Palm Springs, California. Palm Springs claims to have 350 days of sun annually. 
 
Redding, California ranks high with 300 days of sun a year, and then, not surprisingly, there’s Las Vegas with an average of 294 sunny days each year. 
 
One surprise perhaps is Denver, Colorado. The Mile High City has 300 days of sunshine every year. So pack your sunscreen, and don’t forget to hydrate.
