When is Spring Break 2012 & Spring Break Dates

Spring Break is that one week a year when you can really let loose as a College student and take a break from school, your boyfriend & girlfriend worries, and your so-called studying to enjoy a week on the beach or slopes.
College Spring Break is seen as a rite of passage for students at US universities that began in the 1960’s and has become an icon of fun in the sun together with your friends. Planning ahead is often the key to getting the best deal.

US spring break destinations like South Padre Island, Texas; Panama City Beach, Florida; & Breckenridge, Colorado easily the most requested due to both safety concerns – as well as the fact that you can drive there instead of just being able to fly to save money. Eco & Alternative Spring Break destinations like Nicaragua to learn to surf, to taking a short “cruise & stay” cruise to the Bahamas are up & comers. Then…there is the venerable Cancun, still the #1 international destination due to the fact its an unbelievable all inclusive spring break deal.

We receive hundreds (if not thousands) of requests as to When is my Spring Break? That’s the purpose of this page – to tell you when spring break 2012 is and what your spring break dates are going to be.
