well, i never did go on spring break as an undergrad, but i did go on a cruise to mexico in may. we stopped in puerta vallarta, mazatlan, and cabo san lucas. i loved all of them a lot.
puerto vallarta was really dirty compared to the other places, either that or i just wasn't used to the mexican atmosphere yet. i got to go parasailing, ride a mexican bus (never again), and go on a countryside horseback ride. one tip though, bargain as much as possible. probably the most active.
mazatlan was very beautiful. i just did a scenic tour of the city while i was there. i stopped at the original senor frogs and had a couple of yards. no open container laws in mexico so i was very happy. then lunch on the beach. probably the most beautiful of all.
cabo san lucas was so laid back. sammy hagar owns cabo wabo there. i highly suggest stopping in for his ultimate blue tequila. i was only there for a short time so i only got to walk through the town and then i did a snorkeling/booze cruise. it was great. got to go snorkeling, get a tan, and then drink at the end. amazing how sloshed you can get before noon. probably the most relaxed of the bunch.
by the way, a cruise is a great idea for spring break too. you can find some great deals on orbitz.com. i got my cruise on carnival for less than $800. airfare was extra, but it was all worth it. oh if you do decide to do the cruise thing, remember to bring at least two credit cards. one will have a hold on it for your on ship expenses like bar tab, outtings, etc. the other will be used for everything else you do when you stop in the ports. made that mistake myself.
as for this year, i don't know if i will end up going anywhere. i'm more concerned about getting my triip to nyc for new years together.
