Party Time: Best Caribbean Spring Break Islands

Published March 5, 2014 | By BargainTravel

While the history of Spring Break dates back at least to the 1934 visit of the Colgate University swim team to Fort Lauderdale, it was the 1958 novel and 1960 film “Where The Boys Are” that enhanced it in American pop culture. For some college students, the tenuous coming-of-age angst of that movie has morphed into a week of no-holds-barred bacchanalia. These days, breakers know no boundaries, and popular Caribbean destinations including Nassau, Cancun, Puerto Rico and Jamaica compete for college students craving for a respite from snow and studies. A much milder experience awaits many families, who use the spring closure of K-12 schools to warm up and recharge in a tropical setting. Still other travelers seek only to relax in an isolated locale or to give back via volunteer activities. Here are options for all:

Jamaica (Montego Bay & Negril)
Cancun
Nassau & Paradise Island, Bahamas
Trinidad
Dominican Republic (Punta Cana)
Turks & Caicos
Puerto Rico
Saint Lucia
