10.The Florida Keys
From Key West to Key Largo, the Florida Keys offer a number of different things to do for anyone and everyone. The weather here is great during the months of March and April. It’s not too hot for sightseeing but warm enough to hang out at the beach.
You’ll enjoy beautiful sunny days with temperatures between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. This is a great place for a family getaway as it comes complete with stunning beaches and lots of things to do.
In fact, if you do go on spring break with your family, stay in the centrally-located Islamorada. Visit the Theater of the Sea and swim with the dolphins. Feed the tarpons as Robbie’s Marina. Other (ahem) key highlights include the Ernest Hemingway House, the Butterfly Conservatory, and the nearby popular Dry Tortugas National Park.
11.New Orleans, Louisiana
New Orleans is all about fun, history, music, and food! Spring temperatures are generally in the 70s; warm enough for the beach or pool, and not too hot for sightseeing. Additionally, this is the time of year for festivals galore.
Sure, you miss must-see Mardi Gras, in February, but you can find enough drunk partiers in March for the various St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. In mid-March, you can attend the New Orleans Wine & Food Experience. Highlights here include the famous French Quarter, Jackson Square, and the nearby Oak Alley Plantation.
After breakfast at Cafe Du Monde, see the unique architecture and historic sights via a hop-on hop-off bus. Be sure to have po’boys for lunch. Have a mint julep before dinner then hit one of the clubs that line Bourbon Street and enjoy some live jazz music too.
