About Spring Break — why count down to it.
Spring Break is the most anticipated vacation of the school year — and a Spring Break countdown captures that electric excitement perfectly. Whether you're headed to Cancun's Hotel Zone, Panama City Beach, South Padre Island, Miami's South Beach, or a mountain retreat, a Spring Break countdown keeps the excitement alive through the long winter months.
Spring Break typically falls in March or April, with peak weeks varying by school district and university. The most common US spring breaks are the last two weeks of March and first week of April — peak season for beach destinations throughout Mexico and the Caribbean.
