Forbes | The Best Spring Break Destinations For Families Ready To Unwind
A spring break vacation is the perfect antidote to a long winter, giving families with school-age kids a quick reprieve from busy schedules before the academic year wraps. The March or April timing means you’re traveling off-peak for certain destinations, so you may also be treated to fewer crowds—at least compared to summer-season swells. To curate our guide to the best spring break destinations for families, I consulted travel experts and drew on our editors’ extensive firsthand experience.
McLean Robbins, founder of travel advisory firm Lily Pond Luxury, advises families to consider their children’s tolerance for time changes and unexpected delays, as well as their overall appetite for travel before zeroing in on a specific destination, especially if making last-minute plans. “It’s about what can your children handle based on their age and how comfortable you are as a traveler to navigate the complexities that increasingly can happen,” she says. If your youngest children are under age five, she often recommends an easy sun and beach experience. Families with older kids can contemplate Europe even last-minute, she says, because there may be more bookings available than at a popular all-inclusive family resort. Those with teens, well, “the world is your oyster to travel,” she says. Below, find our top picks for where to go on spring break with your family, along with standout properties to book.
