  1. Las Vegas, Nevada - If entertainment, all-you-can-eat buffets, and club hopping, and gambling is your style, Sin City is the place for you this spring break! If you want more culture, there are renown musicians and Broadway musicals playing every night of the week. Plus, MTV will be filming poolside March 6 - 10, 2011…
  2. Grand Canyon - One of the 8 wonders of the world, the Grand Canyon is awe-inspiring and unforgettable. If you are an avid hiking, you’ll have lots of options at the Grand Canyon. Keep in mind that the weather in the spring fluctuates constantly, and you could experience snow and freezing temperatures. If you’re roadtripping, you can stop at Zion’s or Arches National Park in Utah for more breathtaking views.
  3. Jackson Hole, WY - Catch the tail-end of winters and get outdoors for skiing, snowboarding, and sledding. You’ll enjoy the company of cowboys, drinks in the local bar, luxurious spas, and even a ride on the mechanical bull. As a seasoned skiier said, “Jackson Hole is one of the best ski towns around.”
  4. Forks, WA / Seattle, WA - If you’re a Twihard, there’s no destination like Forks, WA. While you’re in the neighborhood, hit up Seattle and their tourist destinations like Pike Place Market (fresh produce and local artisan goods), the Space Needle (are you afraid of heights?), and if you’re a music enthusiast, the Experience Music Project.
  5. Santa Barbara, CA - If you want to find something a little off the beaten path and away from the crowds, check out Santa Barbara. You can look forward to incredible beaches, memorable restaurants on the pier, excellent Mexican food, and great hiking as well.
  6. Park City, UT - If you want to ski or snowboard this spring break, where better than Park City, UT at the top of the Rocky Mountains. The runs work for beginners and seasoned experts. You’ll enjoy wandering through inviting historical downtown Park City, Olympic Village, and Sundance, home of the Sundance Film Festival, is just an hour’s drive away.
