Spring Break Mexico Style


By Monica Levette Clark

On-line Forty-Niner

The season is upon us once again, where college students from all over flock to various corners of the world, and in the words of Prince, “to party like it’s 1999.”
 
One of several destinations students have been known to frequent is Mexico. This spring break season Mexico will once again be invaded by girls gone wild and guys that get them on camera.
 
MexicoSpringBreak.com is a major online agency that offers many spring break packages in various cities in Mexico for students to purchase at bargain deals, and there are many destinations to choose from.
 
Rosarito was named the “super hot spot” for Spring Break by PlayBoy magazine. For students who want to dance all night Rosarito Beach has clubs like Papas and Beers, Senor Frogs, Rock and Roll Taco and Boom Boom.
 
Rosarito is located in northern Mexico and is close to the border, and with it being just hours away from every college in California, students need only to pack up and head on a road trip, grabbing some friends along for the ride.
 
Since 1999, the online agency has held parties and brought many music groups to perform during the spring break season, which included the Long Beach Dub All Stars, Skeletons, Mystic Roots and many others. And this year will be no different.
 
Cabo San Lucas is located atop of the Baja, California peninsula. The finest snorkeling and diving on the West Coast is done here. Beaches like Playa Medano, Land’s End (Lover’s Beach) and Bahia Chileno are available to every student body that love the water and the feeling of sand between their toes, and getting a tan is always a great thing to show off to fellow classmates.
 
Mazatlan is known for its almost immaculate climate, perfect for spring break. There are miles of sand beaches to stroll down, and flashy hotels and clubs are a dime a dozen.
 
In Acapulco there are 10 world class clubs that are considered the best in nightlife the world can offer.
 
Puerto Vallarta is nestled in narrow coastal lowlands between green, lush palm-covered mountains and the sparkling blue waters of Bahia de Banderas. Vallarta was transformed from a nice seaside village, to an all out spring break coastal resort destination.
 
Head into town and students can dine at the most elegant restaurants, or shop at eclectic boutiques and check out some Mexican art galleries.
 
San Felipe is also located near Baja and is a popular Spring Break destination for college students all over southern California. The town, which sits on the northwestern corner of the Sea of Cortez where sea and desert meet, is the home of clubs like Rockodile and Beachcomber.
 
MexicoSpringBreak.com offers the basic or ultimate party packages ranging from three to seven night stays. Packages include all the great amenities that come with spring break including free V.I.P admission to all of the special theme parties: Tuesday is Mardi Gras, Thursday is Ladies Night and Friday is Foam Fest. Other themes are also held on Mon., Wed., Sat. and Sun.
 
To make reservations and for more information students can log onto www.Mexico Spring Break. com.
