Things to do on Spring Break Panama City

Have your heart set on going to Florida for your spring break trip? You're not alone, Florida is a favorite for lots of spring breakers. In fact, Panama City Beach is the most popular northern Spring Break destination. It's located on the panhandle of Florida, and is a great destination, especially if you're in driving distance. Since there are several college campuses that aren't too far from Panama City, there's always students there during spring break to keep the parties going. If you've never been to Panama City before, here are some things you might want to know.

Where to Stay

Making sure you have somewhere nice to stay at takes the bulk of travel stress away. Once you have that figured out, everything else, like figuring out where to party, is pretty easy.

We recommend the Summit condos. They are in a great location, on the beach, they have big bedrooms and full kitchens/living rooms. This will save you on your spending money. It's also within walking distances to all the good nightclubs. If you are looking for a lower cost option, you might want to consider the Chateau Beach hotel.

The Nightlife

The nightlife is THE reason you choose to go to spring break in Panama City. Most of the big clubs are close to where you would stay. You'll have a great time at super clubs such as La Vela, Spinnakers, and more. 

Another bonus is that with Inertia (and only Inertia) you can add to your package our Red Carpet VIP Party Package! Aka the Panamaniac party card. This card has free covers at many popular clubs like Spinnakers, Harpoon Harrys, and Sharkey's. It also includes about 16 hours or so of FREE drinking.

Activities and Side Trips

While the spring break parties might not be as big as they are at South Padre Island, Texas, Panama City really is a great place to go for spring break. It is beautiful (especially the super white, sandy beaches), relaxing, and there is lots to do. 

While you are there you should check out Shipwreck Island; they have some pretty cool rides. You could also do some sailing excursions on the Grand Lagoon. Going on a dolphin tour is another fun option. Really, there are endless activities to choose from here.

Top 10 Family Spring Break Destinations and Why

When you are deciding to take your family on a nice Spring Break vacation, figuring out where to go can be the hardest part of the whole process. Every Spring Break destination has its ups and downs, so the purpose of this post is to give you a good idea of what your options are. We've come up with a list of the top 10 destinations to take your family for Spring Break.

#1 Cancun, Mexico

Cancun is the all-around #1 Spring Break destination in the world. Resorts are top notch, everything is very tourist friendly, the weather is unbelievable, and on top of it all you get crystal clear water and white sandy beaches. There are countless side trips and activities for you to choose from, and the night life is very active once you put your kids to bed. Also, all-inclusive options make budgeting much easier.
When you book a trip to Cancun through Inertia Tours we have scheduled flights, on-site staff from the U.S. to help you out, and more. Find more info at https://www.inertiatours.com/springbreak-cancun/

#2 Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Coming in at #2 is Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Though not as popular as Cancun, Puerto Vallarta is becoming one of the bigger international destinations for Spring Break. This may be an advantage though, as it will be slightly less crowded than Cancun. It may not have quite as many side trips or activities as Cancun, but there is still plenty to do here. Also, the weather is still fantastic, and the beaches are still beautiful. Also, many consider Puerto Vallarta beaches the safest in Mexico.
The resorts are nice and laid back, with quality service that you just can't find anywhere else. Also, if you book through Inertia Tours, we have our onsite manager Andy who lives in Puerta Vallarta year round so that he is always available to help you out, no matter when you book your trip.

#3 South Padre Island, Texas

South Padre Island comes in at #3 for a few reasons. For one, it is the warmest Spring Break destination in the U.S. with temperatures often in the 80's in March. It's also a bit more affordable as it is in the United States. There are nice resorts you can stay at with private beaches. Endless activities and side trips are available like dolphin tours, deep sea fishing, and even sky diving on the beach. Also, South Padre is the Sand Castle capital of the world! While this is a big destination for college students, it is also a great place to take your family.

#4 Panama City, Florida

Panama City is also a very popular destination. It is located in the Northern part of Florida, in the panhandle. You can choose from a variety of hotels, resorts, or condos to stay at. What really sets Panama City apart from other Florida destinations are the beaches. The incredibly white "sugar sand" makes you want to spend your whole trip just relaxing at the beach.

#5 Mazatlan, Mexico

Mazatlan is definitely not as well known as Puerto Vallarta and Cancun. It is still a great place for a family Spring Break vacation, though. The atmosphere is fun, the beaches are great, the food is fantastic, and the weather is typical of Mexico at this time (which is usually perfect since it isn't rainy season during Spring Break). It is a very historical city, which can be fun to learn about with your family.

 #6 Leon, Nicaragua

Nicaragua is quickly become one of the most popular alternative Spring Break destinations. Located right above Costa Rica, the tropical weather is perfect. Once you actually get to Nicaragua you will notice the prices for everything are MUCH lower than in the U.S. and there are unique side trips and activities you can do (like visiting volcanoes). The beaches are less crowded and seem untouched. If you are into surfing or want to learn to surf, Nicaragua is a great place to do it.

#7 Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is often overlooked as a Spring Break destination, but it shouldn't be! It offers a little bit of Caribbean experience that you can get on (kind of) U.S. soil. The pretty beaches make swimming and windsurfing popular.

#8 Bahamas Cruise

While we wouldn't normally recommend a cruise for Spring Break, you can book a Bahamas Cruise through Inertia Tours. This cruise is a little different because you spend 2 nights on the cruise ship (there and back) and 2 nights at a hotel. This way you can get the full Bahamas experience instead of a quick pit stop.

#9 Miami, Florida

Even though Miami is not as far South as South Padre Island (making it a little bit colder), it is still a nice Spring Break destination. You can feel safe as you are still in the United States, and you can enjoy the great food! Beaches there are pretty nice, and there are endless choices when it comes to resorts and places to stay.

#10 Breckenridge, Colorado

This might seem like a weird destination for Spring Break, but sometimes it is nice to skip the beach when you go on a family Spring Break trip. There is still snow for skiing and snowboarding, but it is much less crowded this time of year! The resort is fantastic. You can get living rooms, full kitchens, fireplaces, plus multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. The condos are even within walking distance of the ski lifts. The mountains are beautiful, so don't miss out on the scenery!

Why Having as Many Quality Inclusions in a Spring Break Vacation Matter

So, it's set! You're going on a spring break trip with your friends this year! You're excited for the beach, the parties, the drinks, and the people. But what do you have planned for your vacation? Yes it will be fun hanging at the beach, drinking, and partying every day/night, but sometimes it can get a little boring waiting for the next party!

Plan Some Quality Inclusions!

One of the biggest mistakes many people make when going on spring break vacations is not going on any inclusions or side trips. That's like going to Paris and not seeing the Eiffel Tower! Or like going to Orlando, Florida without going to Disney or Universal Studios!

South Padre Island is the place to be for spring break. If you are already going there, you need to take advantage of what there is to do! We are talking about some of the clearest water and most amazing beaches in the world! It would be a shame to miss out on some of the great activities they have at South Padre.

Side Trips at South Padre Island

1. Dolphin Watch Tour

One of the most fun things to do is the Dolphin Watch Tour. South Padre Island has the most dolphins in the wild in North America, so you are guaranteed to see some! This is a great idea, especially if you don't live near the ocean and haven't seen dolphins in the wild before.

2. Learn to Surf

South Padre has great water, and is one of the best places to learn how to surf! The South Padre Surf Company does lessons. It's cool to be able to cross that one off your bucket list.

3. Party Yacht Cruise

Inertia Tours does a party yacht cruise for almost 2 hours of crazy fun. Has music, contest, and more. Also includes the cover charge after the cruise to Tequila Sunsets & Louies Backyard (which is an Inertia Tours exclusive event).

4. Parasailing

Sonny's Beach Service does parasailing (come on, how awesome does that look?). They are a very safe company and well trained with Captains that are Coast Guard approved. You also get a discount as an Inertia Tours client.

5. Bay Fishing

Ever been fishing in the ocean? South Padre Island has some of the best fishing grounds in the country. You definitely WILL catch some fish. 

6. Jet Skiing

You can rent Jet Skis and such from Windy City Rentals located at Tequila Sunsets. You also get a discount here for being with Inertia Tours. Come on, have you ever seen a sad person on a jet ski?

Inertia Tours Red Carpet VIP Party Package

Many of these side trips are options in the VIP Party Package. There are also lots of other things to do as well, like Skydiving. Or maybe you are going to Cancun instead of South Padre. That's cool too, we have lots of activities you can do there as well. Make sure you check out our site and see what there is to do during your spring break vacation.

Remember, you are going to have a great time on your spring break vacation with your friends. It's fun to party it up. But making sure you have quality inclusions on your vacation is what will make your spring break unforgettable.
