Want to feel like you’ve been transported to another planet — without leaving the US? That’s the beauty of Yellowstone National Park, which features out-of-this-world landscapes and geothermal activity that you have to see to believe.
As the first national park in the world, Yellowstone is definitely a bucket list spring break destination for nature-loving families. Most of it sits on top of a supervolcano, and it has the highest concentration of geothermal features in the world. Your kids will be speechless when they see the erupting geysers, steaming hot springs, and neon thermal pools. Talk about an epic getaway!
Complete with a stay at a log cabin (mountain views are must!), it’s a spring break destination that your family will never forget.

Snorkel the Coral Reef State Park, feed the tarpon at Robbie’s (pictured above), stay in a luxe oceanfront rental, and tour the Dolphin Rescue Center and the Turtle Hospital, where you can “adopt” your own sea turtle.
And don’t forget to grab a slice of key lime pie while you’re there! The famous desert was invented in Key West in the 19th century, and it doesn’t taste quite as good anywhere else.

Not only is Seattle a super fun spring break destination, but it’s also one of our favorite ideas for families who don’t want to go to the same vacation spots as everyone else. With a super chill vibe, this unique city is a great alternative to destinations like NYC, Orlando, and San Diego. The perfect melting pot of amazing food (especially seafood!), music culture, and epic outdoors super close by.
Spend your spring break wandering around the city and exploring family friendly destinations like the Space Needle, the Museum of Pop Culture, and Pike Place Market, which is home to the very first Starbucks.
Seattle is also surrounded by water, so it’s a great place to go on a harbor cruise — or to stay in a unique waterfront condo!
