Where are you headed for Spring Break 2018? Follow tips and suggestions from CheapAir and an amazing, instagrammable and affordable trip is all but guaranteed! This year, destinations across Mexico and the Caribbean are a better deal that typical. Search for cheap flights to awesome beach spots, book the best Spring Break hotels, and check back with us for useful Spring Break travel tips, trends and airfare deals and sales!
The Big Easy is where it’s at if your idea of a great spring break involves delicious food, a crazy drink (Hurricane’s anyone?), some of the best blues music this side of the Mississippi and a 24/7 party in the streets! You can also count on reasonable hotel rates and welcoming locals!
23 miles of sandy beaches, the convenient, safe and free party bus that takes you from bar to bar after the sun goes down, and proximity to Walt Disney World makes Daytona Beach a great option for college spring breakers. It’s also a great value since you can drive to it from many east coast college locations!
Cancun is always a great Spring Break option, though it’s not always the deal that we’re seeing for 2018! Take advantage of uncharacteristically low airfare and hotel prices this year and experience the white sandy beaches and carnival atmosphere of the Riviera Maya in the spring.
Don’t shy away from destinations like Jamaica this spring break! Montego Bay is ready and open for business and prices are lower than usual! We think you’ll fall in love with the laid-back lifestyle you just can’t get anywhere else. Chillin’ in Jamaica? Where do we sign up?
Another Caribbean destination on discount this year is the Dominican Republic, though it’s usually a great value for spring breakers anyway! Punta Cana is great for the laid-back, chill traveler. The stunning white sandy beaches and perfect weather will not disappoint you and your friends!
San Diego is a little beach town with perfect weather most of the year. There’s a great little downtown with lots of bars and restaurants to try. It’s also just over the border from Tijuana, so don’t forget to pack your passport if you’d like to experience a so-cal/Mexico spring break.
What doesn’t Sin City have for the spring break crowd? Cheap flights and extremely affordable hotel rooms are the norm pretty much year round, and 24/7 party people know the club scene is world famous. Buffet dining and free drinks (if you’re gambling) make this vacation a no brainer for spring breakers.
Miami is not for you if you’re looking for a quiet place to lounge for your spring break! No – Miami is loud, proud and ready to party. Check out South Beach for people watching and pristine beaches, Little Havana for the best Cuban eats, and Calle Ocho for to-die-for clubs and restaurants.
South Padre is the place to go if you’re on a limited budget but don’t want to sacrifice the fun. Once a year, at spring break the island doesn’t sleep, stop or even slow down. The beach party is nonstop and the hotels and motels won’t break the bank!
Call Myrtle Beach a “classic” spring break destination – it’s been entertaining college students for decades and the nightlife and beaches do not disappoint. One caveat – Myrtle Beach is also known as a family-friendly spring break destination, so keep in mind you’ll be rubbing shoulders with families on vacay as well.
