With Spring break coming, college students are more than eager to scream in pure virginal joy, break free from their demanding professors and stressful schoolwork and hit the sun-soaked waves, get the perfect tan and party like school is a thousand lightyears away.

For those of you, young souls, looking for the perfect Spring Break getaway (which is more or less a combination of affordable, accessible and awesome places), lose all that warm clothes, pack your bikinis and flipflops, grab your sunnies because here are the top five Spring Break Destinations this year.

Panama City Beach, Florida

If you’re looking for hordes of company to celebrate your month-long freedom, Panama City is the perfect place for you. Every Spring Break, crowds and crowds of college students flock together to drink and party like there’s no tomorrow. The best part is, super affordable hotel deals and event discounts abound! So, you can stop worrying about basically everything and just party!

South Padre Island, Texas

In the Southern tip of Texas, nearly crossing the border, this piece of Spring Break paradise attracts college students all across the State because of its jaw-dropping beaches and warm fuzzy weather. The scenery is something worth indulging in! Inhale it, smell it, feel it. Stroll along miles of beaches, ride the quenching waves and then at night, drink, do something crazy and party non-stop in the most popular clubs in town.

Daytona Beach, Florida

Basically an underrated version of Panama City Beach, the 20-mile sandy landscape of Daytona Beach promises epic party nights you’ll never forget and never remember at the same time. The place is considerably popular because of the NASCAR empire expansion in the area. So, be ready to bump into your favorite race car driver once in awhile. Aside from that, there are tons of activities for you and your friends in the morning, and there are even wilder ones at night.

Cancun, Mexico

Get ready to experience phenomenal guacamole, margaritas and tequilas galore in this sun-kissed piece of heaven in the tropics. The exotic mood of the culture is to die for while the frolicsome party scene will away ceaselessly. Though crossing the border might be a tad bit more expensive than exploring local beaches, the warmer weather, all-inclusive hotels and lower drinking age will surely make your stay worth it.

Nassau, Bahamas

If you’re tight on the budget but you want to go as far as you can from school work and exams, thank God for the Bahamas. Every Spring break, travel companies create ultra awesome pocket-friendly packages, cruises and all-inclusive deals that will make you pack your bags and go skinny dipping on the beach. While snorkeling with the dolphins, sunbathing , and riding the waves are probably awesome ways to spend the day, nothing beats the tear-worthy fact that the drinking limit is 18!
