The long winter is over. College students have just wrapped up another semester of grueling studies and final exams and it is finally time to let off a little steam. Spring Break South Padre Island is quickly becoming the vacation destination for students looking for fun in the sun during the month of March.

Located at the extreme southern tip of Texas, South Padre Island is as far south as you can go without needing a passport. With recent border rules making it necessary for travelers to Mexico to carry additional paperwork, the Island has become more popular than ever with more than 50,000 making the pilgrimage every spring.

Ranked seventh on the list compiled by the Travel Channel of the best US beaches, the sandy stretches become the backdrop for nightly parties, events and contests for a solid month straight. Live DJs provide the tunes for everything from custom car shows to wet t-shirt and bikini contests. Guest participation is highly encouraged for crowd karaoke and Guitar Hero exhibitions.

Louies Backyard has been serving up seafood and cocktails for three decades. It boasts the only WiFi Sports bar in the area with 58 high definition TVs and seven big screen DLPs for those who want to catch some NCAA action in between catching rays on the beach. With live music nightly, Louies keeps the party going until the wee hours. Thrill seekers are directed across the street for the opportunity to bungee jump from the second tallest tower in North America.

The Isla Grand Beach Resort has the Quarterdeck, home of the world famous La Jaiba Downs crab races every Wednesday night on the Lounge Raceway as well as nightly performances by dance bands brought in from around the country. The Whiskey Shack operates as a seasonal palapa bar poolside and the Hammerhead Deck hosts a daily happy hour with drink and appetizer specials.

Parrot Eyes Restaurant and Bar also runs the biggest watersports center in the area with organized fishing and snorkeling tours in addition to banana boat, jetski and kayak rentals.

Students will find a number of condos for rent with some that sleep up to ten people. Kegs and alcohol are perfectly legal on the beach. These are just two reasons by South Padre Island has become popular for the spring breaker on a budget.

Check it out and see for yourself why the Island has become the fastest growing party destination for college students everywhere.
