Suggestions for a Vacation...?

Jamaica MON

florida is tight. and prolly cheaper than flying to another country.

no doubt it is, but for warmer temps in December we might have to go more southbound.

Beaches resort in jamaica is awesome.  all inclusive, crystal clear water,and 5 pools( with swim up bars).  The only thing is that it rains almost everyday.  The Bahmamas are fun but not as nice weather. Go to Atlantis or Beaches in bahamas.  hope this helps. ask if you need anything else

Florida Keys man. I just stayed there with my gf for a week, we camped at bahia honda state park for a week to the tune of 150 bones. Better reserve it now though. We drove from PA and it took about 22 hours one way. Snorkeling for days, fishing is great, water was warm as shit and crystal clear. Although you might wanna keep an eye on the progress of that oil spill. If ya want touristy for a night or two hit key west, it's only a forty five minute drive from the park.

If you are under 21 and want to drink I would suggest Mexico. I really like the Playa Del Carmen Cozumel Area.

Cozumel is really tight, you could do everything on the island in 3 days, there is a nature preserve on the southern tip of the island with incredible beaches and crocs and really good snorkeling. There is a Tiqula factory and some other cool shit.

Cozumel is off the cost of of Playa Del Carmen. Last time I went there I went to Playa. There is a whole shit load of hotels all the way from Cancun down to Playa. These are ok, a lot more cookie cutter but all inclusive which is great if you are on a budget, you could literally not spend an extra cent and have an awesome time.

There are also these Cenotes in the jungle. These were literally one of the coolest thing I have ever seen. One was a cave with the clearest water you have ever seen and the other was open to the air and my dream in life. Any NSer would go crazy. A 20' jumping dock, a zip line, ropes hanging across to play and joust on. It was really really cool. I am 24 and I felt like I was 12, fucking awesome.

Mexico is pretty cheap too, I would say about 900 a person for a week with flight. 1200 if you do a trip every day. (which I suggest you do, zip lining ocean sailing, all types of shit.)

I have mixed feelings about all inclusive. It is really awesome to not have to worry about paying for anything, but I way overeat and over drink. I think if I did it again I might rent a little house in Playa. But for the first time there I would just go all inclusive.

thanks guys these are great, anyone been to Costa Rica or someplace else in Latin America?

have been all over mexico, guatemala, and belize.  they are all ridiculously sweet.  belize was the most expensive.  i would think you could fly to cancun for super cheap, and from there, you can take a boat out to isla mujeres, which is a fun little island- beaches, snorkelling, bike/ scooter rentals, beachside bars, that sort of thing.  south from cancun is the town of tulum, which has the most gorgeous beaches ive ever seen.  a little further south and more inland is the town of san cristobal de las casas, which is a badass town up in the mountains with tons of local, mayan culture.

guatemala is dirt cheap, but maybe not the most family friendly?  you cant go wrong with lake atitlan, though.  or livingston on the coast.

belize is just the bee's knees.  tropical islands.  cheap rum.  snorkelling with devil rays and nurse sharks and moray eels at the barrier reef.  a bit pricier though.

If you go to a country with finical problems ie. greece or spain, you will be helping their economy, and its mad cheap

How was the oil??? like serious question was there any there??

come to new zealand my friend. ultimate travel destination

go to mexico such a quality place. have fun.

Las vegas or anywhere with a beach.
