Florida’s year-round sun and warmth are what make it the ideal getaway no matter what time of year you’re here. Time on the beach, taking a plunge in the Gulf of Mexico, and several other fun activities await, and the heat and energy begin to turn up during Spring Break season. Build a 30A spring break trip that reflects you and your traveling companions’ interests. You’ll find something along 30A to make your trip one to remember!
Food & Music
You’ll find many bars and restaurants with beachside locations along 30A. Many have patios where you can walk right up and enjoy a meal after a splash in the gulf. There are other locales further inland that offer delicious eats, too. The theme running through them all, however, is the great music and live entertainment they offer while you dine. During spring break, you’ll find food and entertainment at just about every venue near the beach, so you can rock the night away.
Escape Rooms
Escape rooms are a fun way to take a break from the water and steadily warming sun, or just spend some time inside with a different activity while still enjoying the fun 30A has to offer. Rooms are rated by difficulty, and even come with age and a recommended number of people to solve, so you can choose the right adventure for your group. Try your hand at themes like death row break out, Navy SEALs, and castle escape, all ready to stretch your logic and sleuthing skills. Solve all the clues and break out in 60 minutes to win.
Beaches
Pack the cooler, dress in your best beachwear, and grab your beach gear. Then prepare for a fun day on land or on the water during your well-deserved spring break. Whether you’re staying on land or heading out to sea, there’s an activity for you. Sunbathe, take a walk or run on the sand, or plant your beach umbrella and blanket for a picnic. Swim in the waves of the Gulf or take a lesson or rent some gear for activities like stand up paddleboarding and kayaking. You can even book a horseback ride down the beach.
Coastal Biplane
The Coastal Biplane, known to locals as the Spirit of 30A, was built in 2010. Despite its young age, the craft reflects the look and feel of a classic 1930s biplane aircraft design. The Ferrari-red colored open cockpit design of the Waco YMF-5 biplane seats the pilot as well as two side-by-side passengers. While many say, “don’t look down,” you’ll want to make an exception this time. Look down to catch glimpses of land and sea, and the life that inhabits it. Opt for a short 20-minute cruise or choose one of their packages that offer time in the sky, either choice provides Labor Day memories for a lifetime!
Dune Lakes
Florida is one of just two states in the U.S., and five total places around the world, where coastal dunes are a natural geographic feature. These lakes are typically shallow, irregularly shaped permanent bodies of water. The water is often brackish and dark-colored due to the unique mix of saltwater and freshwater sources. Rent a kayak, canoe, or paddleboard, purchase a combo freshwater/saltwater fishing license, or just relax along the shoreline.
Hiking
Pack your sun gear, water, and trail snacks and head out to experience the land-based natural beauty of 30A. While you’re out in the wild, keep a lookout for local wildlife, including black bear, coyotes, deer, and osprey, to name a few. Take a break from the hike and stop in at one of the picnic areas of the state parks for a break and to fuel up before moving on.
Snorkel and SCUBA Tours
Tap one of the many companies along 30A for tours that extend your nature and wildlife viewing below the shimmering waters of the Gulf this spring break. You’ll get close to bottlenose dolphins, manatees, rays, sea turtles, a variety of fish species, and even sharks! Ask about daytime or sunset tours, as well as gear rental for when you’ve built your confidence and want to dive or snorkel on your own itinerary. Keep in mind that you must be certified before attempting any SCUBA dives on your own.
Spa Day
The beach towns of 30A know relaxation. There are several spas that offer massages, body wraps and scrubs, manicures, pedicures, and more. Select spas offer special packages for “him” that cater to his unique needs.
