Plan Early for Spring Break 2011
Planning early for Spring Break is critical to ensuring students get the best packages, the best rates and the best destinations because believe it or not the hot spots like Grand Bahamas Island, Cancun, and Acapulco all sell out well before Spring Break.
Traveling in March and April for Spring Break can really break your budget if you don’t plan ahead and understand what deals are available to you. Countries that are dependent on the US economy for survival will generally offer exceptionally good deals to Spring Breakers trying to win their business.
The secret is to find the best deals early that offer the best packages to suit your budget and your destination dreams. There are lots of travel agencies that offer cheap tickets and party packages to these tropical paradises, but Spring Breakers really need to be aware that a deal that sounds too good to be true generally is.
Places like Grand Bahamas Island are really popular destinations for students looking to unwind from the rigors of college exams and the pressure that comes with being a college student today. The rule of thumb is if there is sand, sun, water sports and the drinking age is 18 – it’s going to be a great Spring Break hot spot.
Grand Bahamas Island is conveniently located 55 miles off the coast of Florida, and is well known for its spectacular, reef-protected shoreline, and white sand beaches. The island is conducive to parasailing, snorkeling, scuba diving and windsurfing during the day. There are several fantastic beaches including Lucaya Beach, Xanadu Beach, Taino Beach and of course the most well known beach, Gold Rock Beach which is located at the Lucayan National Park, which has numerous caves to be explored. Grand Bahamas Island also offers the opportunity to swim with a pod of Bottlenose dolphins at UNEXSO, a Scuba training facility located on the island.
At night the activities include the bars, the Casinos and of course Count Basie Square, with pubs and bars and several night clubs where you can dance and drink almost until dawn.
One thing Spring Breakers should consider is going to an all-inclusive resort; Grand Bahamas has several resorts on the island that offer this style of Spring Break packages. All-inclusive vacation packages include, room, all meals, all beverages, alcoholic and non-alcoholic, non-motorized water sports, tips, gratuities and taxes. For the Spring Breaker, the all-inclusive vacation package will generally be the most affordable package available. Remember, on Grand Bahamas Island, the drinking age is 18, and on an all-inclusive resort there is no need to leave the resort for dinner, drinks or any night time activities.
Be sure to consult with a qualified Bahamas travel consultant who can help you get the right Spring Break vacation to match your budget and your dream vacation.
