As students make their way through the third quarter of school, the workload becomes treacherous, and spring break is all that is on their minds. One day students are all in AHS taking their final summatives before break, and the next day they are in various locations having the greatest vacations of their lives. Here are some of the top five best spring break vacation spots of 2025.
Number one is a classic vacation spot that holds many childhood memories for a lot of people. This spot is Orlando, Florida, the home of Disney World and so many other fun activities. When you think of Orlando, Disney World is the first thing that comes to mind, but even though that's a huge tourist attraction, Orlando has many other fun theme parks and water parks. Some of the other theme parks consist of LEGOLAND, Sea World, and Universal Studios.
Number two is Cancun, Mexico. Cancun is an amazing place to go on spring break because of the tropical environment and all of the aquatic activities. In Cancun, you can go to aquariums, stay at five-star resorts, and book cruises that will have unforgettable scenery. Cancun is an amazing place to go with family or friends if you're looking to get out of the United States but still stay close. The things to do in Cancun are endless, whether you want crystal clear water on a beach day, or if you want a day out shopping.
Number three is a very exciting and action-packed place: Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Punta Cana is filled with all of its five-star all-inclusive hotels; you won't even need to leave the resort to have a good time. Punta Cana also has amazing waterfalls and beaches where you can see the beautiful sunset or sunrise every day of vacation. To go along with that, Punta Cana also has activities where you can ride horses along your beaches at Sunset and get a beautiful view while riding a pony. There are also so many exciting water parks that you could go to, such as Splash Water Park and Aqua Games water park.
Number four is Phoenix, Arizona. Phoenix is different from the rest of the locations because it isn't as tropical and it doesn't have as many beaches; however, it is an attraction to tourists who want to explore the area and hike gorgeous trails. Phoenix also has a super warm climate, so you can get out of the cold weather and get outside more over break. Even though the Grand Canyon is not in Phoenix, it is a three-hour drive outside of Phoenix, and if you go to Arizona, it is a must-see. The Grand Canyon is a famous tourist attraction that people love to visit while they enjoy the views.
Number five and the last location that I'll be talking about is Barcelona, Spain. This might be more of an expensive vacation, but is definitely worth the splurge. Barcelona is super colorful and is packed with history that you can learn about on the trip. With its vibrant neighborhoods and amazing food, Barcelona is the perfect place to go to get away from everyday life. Whether you want to relax by the Mediterranean Sea or go out in the town and experience amazing shopping, food, and see the city's historical architecture, Barcelona has it all.
Overall, these vacations are some ideas for either spring break or anytime that you want to get away and experience an unforgettable time with your friends and family.
