Fort Lauderdale has become a traditional spring break destination that continues to lure college students. Known as “The Venice of America,” Fort Lauderdale is popular for its beaches, but if the weather gets too humid after a long, cold winter, you can always duck into one of the city’s many museums.

For late spring breakers, there’s relatively affordable airfare in late April to Los Angeles. Once there, you can pair your beach time with urban adventure in downtown Los Angeles, which is experiencing a renaissance of late.

Miami is the most popular college spring break destination in the U.S. But you might want to avoid South Beach, or SoBe as the kids say, in early April when airfare has historically been at its highest.

With “Beach” in the name, you can imagine why people are flocking to West Palm for spring break. The last week in March is a great time to go if you want to secure some of the cheapest airfares.

Although it’s not the beach, a little desert heat (temperatures can reach the mid-70s in March and the mid-80s in April) will make memories of this winter melt away. The first week of April is a great time to visit for best airfares, and the events calendars for both Phoenix and its close neighbor, Scottsdale, are packed to the brim.

If you’re looking for another Florida beach town with activities for the kids, Fort Myers is the place to go. The Imaginarium is an interactive science museum that gets them out of the pool. Late March is a great time to go for best airfares.

White sand beaches and endless bar crawls? Los Cabos is what (college) Spring Break dreams are made of. There’s also plenty to do if endless bar crawls aren’t your scene, like hopping on a whale watching tour on the open ocean.

San Juan is another destination that’s fun for all ages. Between the vast El Yunque Rainforest, beautiful beaches and the cool vibes of Old San Juan, there is truly something for everyone here.

Want the beach without the spring breakers? March seems to be the best time during Spring Break season to head to Tampa. It’s close to famous Clearwater Beach and houses plenty of family activities like amusement parks and museums.
