Spring Break for Adults: A Vacation Away From the Crowds
Tulum, Mexico
If Mexico still tops your list for spring break destinations, ditch Cancun and try Tulum on for size. Just south of Cancun and Playa del Carmen, Tulum remains relatively undeveloped despite its proximity to popular destinations, making it the perfect spring break destination for couples.
Charming boutique hotels line the beachfront where coffee is delivered to your room each morning. There are a number of eco-friendly and vegetarian restaurants in the area, which make eating healthy a lot easier than many other spring break destinations.
Besides visiting the beach every day, you can explore the ruins along the water and swim in cave sinkholes where the water is a crystal clear blue.
St. Augustine, Florida, USA
Another great American destination that boasts a rich history and a wide variety of local activities, St. Augustine has all the charm of a European city, but with better year round weather. You can take a horse drawn carriage or trolley down the cobblestone streets and admire the Spanish Colonial architecture.
Visit the Castillo de San Marcos to see the reenactors fire a real cannon or drink from the springs of the Fountain of Youth. There are also plenty of parks and museums in the area to wander around in that’ll give you a hearty appetite to enjoy one of the city’s top rated restaurants.
Do the prospects of America following the 2016 presidential election have you feeling down? Move to one of these beautiful and thriving places in the world!
Halkidiki, Greece
Some of the most stunning beaches in the world are found in Greece, particularly the Halkidiki peninsula, surrounded by turquoise water and white sand. In Kassandra, the westernmost part of the peninsula, you’ll find modern resorts and bumping nightlife that’ll allow you to go from relaxation to partying and back again.
Nicknamed “the land of Aristotle,” Halkidiki is home to the philosopher’s birthplace and also boasts an ancient cave where a 700,000 year old skull was found.
