After working hard all semester on your college studies, one thing you may be looking forward to is a break from it all. There is a good chance that you and some friends are considering a fun trip for spring break. One choice for fun and sun is Panama City Beach, FL.
This beach vacation spot in the panhandle of Florida has fairly good weather during late February and March, the times you would probably be taking your trip. High temperatures generally reach upper 60s and into the mid 70s. Lows are usually in the 50s or 60s, although it has been known to dip into the 40s during late February.
February and March tend to be dry months in Florida, so you should not run into too much rain. Of course you never can predict it and there will be a few days of precipitation, so plan on the possibility. If you go out to the beach in the morning, you will probably find it to be a tad chilly. But by 11am, when the sun is fully up, you will notice it warm up quickly.
Panama City Beach is among the most popular destinations for college kids getting away from it all and having fun. There are always lots of things to do and the beaches are filled with fun, not to mention vendors who give away free merchandise daily. Many sponsors hold contests to win terrific prizes like electronics, clothes, even cash.
In addition to beach fun during the day, those who want to add a little adventure can also find parasailing, sea diving and snorkeling, fishing boats, canoeing, kayaking and jet skiing. There are a few golf courses to check out as well. Other fun things to do one day include a water park, bowling alley, mini golf and swimming with dolphins at Gulf World Marine Park.
As for night life, you are covered. Dive bars, karaoke bars, tiki lounges, jazz and wine spots and dance clubs are all over the streets. Whatever type of music you want to hear, you will find it.
Be sure to book your accommodations early as this is a popular spot and places fill up quickly. In addition to traditional hotels, you can also find apartments, condo and houses for rent. There are also RV campsites if you are thinking of driving down with a camper full of buddies!
Whether you choose Panama City Beach, FL or some other location, just be sure to be careful while you have fun. Think about having a designated driver each night. That person will usually get to drink sodas/coffees for free and sometime eat free. Also look for shuttles which provide free or inexpensive transportation back to your room if you may have had a little too much to drink. Have fun and be safe!
