Top 7 destinations during Spring Break

By Randy Colt

Whoever invented the Spring Break should be given a Nobel Prize. It’s that one time of the year when we’re allowed to loosen up and just have fun. There are just so many places to visit during your Spring Break, but if you’re smart, you’ll book a flight to one of these 7 prime destinations.

Miami

Nothing screams Spring Break more than the beach. Miami’s long strip is definitely not a sleepy spot especially at this time of the year. In fact, Miami probably doesn’t wait around for the Spring Break to happen. It’s a hot party spot all-year-round. If you want to see and be seen, don’t miss out on the South Beach or So Be. Just take note that Miami is also known as the place where the beach is just as lovely as the people you’ll see on the beach so you might want to shape up.
 
Enjoy great dining and clubbing spots when you find yourself in this part of the world. The culture is also very interesting on this strip. Spot a group of Cubans just chilling in the sun, or rich locals tanning their already perfectly tanned bodies. Check out the cocktail mixes of the most popular clubs here and make sure you’re with your own brand of poison as you watch the beautiful Miami sunset.

Amsterdam

If you want to get a taste of true freedom, you might want to visit Amsterdam. Notorious for its “live and let live”  motto, the city legally allows controversial and supposedly illegal acts like smoking weed and even prostitution as long as it doesn’t harm any of its denizens.  As a result, Amsterdam also has one of the world’s richest art scenes. With its residents able to think freely on their toes, expression at its highest form is celebrated.

What Spring Breakers love about the city, though is not the diverse art scene as much as the leniency of life in general. It’s true that while drug and alcohol trafficking is legal, it’s still regulated, but compared to other parts of the world, the leash is pretty lose here. The drinking age is 16 opposed to other countries’ 18- or 21-year-old brackets. There are also about 1,000 bridges and 160 canals to explore on your lazy days when you just want a quick boat ride or a stroll across the country.
 

San Diego
 
This city can probably be considered a Spring Break haven with enough sprinkling of beaches, its mild climate at this time of the year, and its scenic downtown streets. If you’re travelling with kids, it would probably be a good idea to drop by SeaWorld. There are also plenty of beach bars for good but cheap eats by the sea. Come night time, San Diego bustles to life especially at the Pacific Beach where the club scene is simply happening. Explore Garnett and Grand Avenue for the best clubs in the area.

If you want a more posh evening out with a date, you might want to go downtown to the Gaslamp Quarter. Hipsters also flock the rooftop of the W hotel with its famous Beach Bar. No stilettos necessary for the ladies in this hot spot. You can wear your flip flops or be more daring by being barefoot. You might also want to go to San Diego’s actual beaches and start a bonfire. These are the best spots in the city for a booze fest.
 

Koh Phangan, Thailand
 
If you’ve frequented Thailand during the Spring Break in the past, you might have gone to more popular beaches like Phuket and Koh Samui. These days, though, you’ll probably get more bang for your buck at the Koh Phangan island. Try to book your stay during their Full Moon Parties and join 30,000 moon-worshippers at the beach. Don’t think this would look like a cult, though. Techno music is the craze during these Full Moon Parties, and you get to dance barefoot with your glow sticks in hand. If you can’t book a flight to catch these world-famous parties, don’t worry. You can still get the same experience at their New Age beachfront cafes. What’s the best part about coming here? The beer is cheap and the beaches are really pretty.
 

Dominican Republic

Spring Break is all about having fun, but no one really wants to bust their pockets while they’re travelling. The Dominican Republic is fast becoming a favouring among Spring Breakers because of the enticing package deals offered by airlines and travel agencies. The other reason is that it’s in the Caribbean, and who doesn’t want to be in this part of the world at the most ideal time of the year? While you get to enjoy pristine, white sand beaches, the night life here is far from dull. There are Vegas-style casinos, impressive and highly cosmopolitan night clubs, and resorts built to please both families travelling with kids and all-adult groups. You can go horseback riding, golfing, diving, and surfing while you’re here, too. There’s never a dull moment in this Spring Break hot spot.

 
Gulf Coast

If you want to give back this Spring Break, then you should definitely consider going to the Gulf Coast this summer. There is plenty of work to be done after 2005’s Hurricane Katrina hit, and the BP oil spill in 2010. Simply contact Historic Green (www.historicgreen.com) and see how you can help the organization. This used to be one of the most beautiful spots on Earth, and it would be great if you can help to resuscitate it. After a hard days’ work, there are also plenty of jazz bars to frequent in the city. It’s a more noble way of spending the Spring Break.

Montreal

With everyone flying off to the south for the Spring Break, you might want to go the unbeaten path and explore Montreal. This is just off the border of Canada, and it’s a good place for gambling and booze fest. You’ll have to be over 18 years old to enjoy what this city has to offer. If you came here with your school buddies on a road trip, you might want to take the road pilgrimage along the East Coast. You’ll find plenty of night clubs here—some of them bordering on the very naughty. If a sophisticated Spring Break is more to your liking, Montreal also has a lot to offer for the highly cultured. Check out the Mont-Royal, or go for the city’s posh ski resorts up the mountains.
