Take a road trip. You’d be surprised just how many college students take this alternative route for spring break fun. Grab a group of friends, a reliable car/SUV, a map and you’re all set. Best of all with road trips, you can stop and stay with friends or relatives, take detours at the last minute, and pile all your friends into a hostel or hotel room. Try to take back roads as much as possible as well to capture the scenic moments of your trip. Student Universe has a full list of hotels and hostels around the world at competitive prices.

Camping is another great idea for the out doors type. It’s a nice alternative for a rustic, good down-to-earth time with your friends and a campfire. Pitch a tent or for a little more money rent a log cabin and remember your fishing rods! Many sites have water and an electric hookup. Also a lot of campsite have planned activities and things for visitors to do.
Visit a big city. There are a lot more things to do around you then you might think. State websites have lists of local activities and annual events. New York, L.A., Chicago, Houston, Phoenix, Philadelphia, and San Deigo are just a few cities with endless sites both modern and historic and all have a great nightlife. StudentUniverse.com has a list of all the major cities in the U.S. and around the world with information on what to do, see, eat, shop, and party.

Volunteer! This is probably the cheapest, but hardly the physically easiest alternative for spring break. There are many options if you venture down this road that will allow you to visit places in need in the country. You may help rebuilding communities or working with individuals. Needless to say it’s a one of a kind, fulfilling experience.
