Are you planning a getaway this spring but aren’t sure where to go? Continue reading for our list of the hottest travel destinations for spring 2025. Whether you prefer a tropical beach getaway or a cultural tour of Europe, there is something for every type of traveller on this list!
Soak up the sun and be immersed in Mexican culture in Puerto Vallarta. Located on Mexico’s west coast, spring breakers will love the vibrant colors, wild nightlife, delicious cuisine, and sandy, Pacific Coast beaches that Puerto Vallarta has to offer. Plus, as one of Mexico’s major airports, you can fly into PV from practically anywhere!
Visit Italy before the crowds set in by travelling to Cinque Terre this spring. Cinque Terre is located in the famous Italian Riviera, which is known for its picture-perfect cliffside villages, aquamarine water, and of course, its authentic Italian cuisine! The best part about visiting Cinque Terre in the spring is the weather is cooler (you can avoid the intense heat and humidity of summer), which will allow you to take full advantage of the area’s many walking and hiking trails, including the recently reopened Path of Love.
There is no country in Central America hotter than Belize right now, and we certainly understand why! This stunning tropical locale is not only affordable but boasts warm temperatures year-round. You can expect temps in the mid-80s during the spring (plus minimal rainfall!), which is ideal for relaxing on any of Belize’s white sand beaches. When on the island, make sure to visit Hol Chan Marine Reserve, which is the best spot for snorkelling - you might even spot a sea turtle! Ultimately, if laying on the beach with a drink in hand and crystal clear waters all around sounds like your dream spring break trip, then you’ll be sure to love Belize.
Yosemite National Park is famous for a reason. As soon as you catch your first glimpse of Yosemite Valley, your jaw will drop. The unfortunate part of Yosemite is that it’s generally full of tourists - unless you visit during the off season. November to March is generally the best window to travel to the park, which is why it makes for such a perfect spring break destination. If you’re into hiking or climbing, this California national park is a must. Marvel at Half Dome and El Cap, enjoy a luxurious stay at The Ahwahnee, or bike around the valley floor. No matter how you choose to spend your time in Yosemite, we promise that you’ll love relaxing in nature.
Nightlife, history, beaches, culture, and amazing food - Barcelona has it all! A vastly underrated European city, Barcelona is surprisingly affordable when you travel here in the spring. You’ll also enjoy no crowds, which means much smaller lines for some of the city’s most famous sites, such as Basílica de la Sagrada Família or Park Güell. If marvelling at Antoni Gaudi’s infamous architecture in person isn’t your thing, head to Barceloneta Beach. Alternatively, if you want to get away from Barcelona’s busy city center, spend an afternoon exploring the Gràcia neighborhood, which is home to the most authentic Catalan cuisine in Barcelona.
Whatever you do, make sure that you pack property before leaving for your getaway. That means a pair of supportive and stylish swim trunks, available at Malebasics.
