1. San Miguel de Allende, Mexico
How about trading in beach chairs for cobblestone streets and colorful colonial buildings? San Miguel de Allende is a total gem, with its artsy vibe and history-packed streets. Spend your days exploring artisan markets and participating in a cooking class, checking out local galleries, or just kicking back on a rooftop with views of the Parroquia de San Miguel Arcángel. And did you know there are options for horseback riding, ATVing and even wine tasting just outside of town? Oh, and the food? Absolutely next level.
2. Sedona, Arizona
If you’re more about nature and those breathtaking views, Sedona should be on your list. The red rock landscapes are unreal, and there’s so much to do—hiking, jeep tours, or even just soaking in the vibes at a wellness retreat.
3. South Carolina’s Low Country
Looking for something with a little Southern charm? South Carolina’s Low Country is all about laid-back vibes and beautiful scenery. Take a stroll through Charleston’s historic streets, enjoy some fresh seafood in Beaufort, or find a quiet beach (or golf course!) on Kiawah Island. It’s the perfect mix of history, good eats, and relaxation.
4. Whistler, British Columbia
Snow lovers, this one’s for you. Whistler is known for its epic skiing, but it’s also a great spot to just hang out and enjoy the mountain vibes. Stay in a cozy chalet, hit the slopes, and then wind down with some amazing food in the village.
Whatever kind of spring break you’re dreaming of—adventure, chill time, or a little of both—these spots bring something special to the table. So, why not mix it up this year and make your spring getaway one to remember?
