[quote=Anonymous]So what is really unique about Hawaii as a destination is that it is not just a beach.  You can take advantage of hiking and ziplining and the water activities is not just about being on a beach in FL sunbathing.  You go surfing and you go scuba.

It's just a beautiful place.  It's not unlike Costa Rica for example where it's a country that you can take advantage of seeing different environments and have various activities to choose from.

Mexico City is really amazing.  In the US, I think people really don't realize how great a city Chicago and NYC are.  In the Spring, I really enjoy the SW - New Mexico is great for white water rafting, hiking, a lot of historical outdoors to see and shopping.  New Mexico is both full of poverty and wealth depending on where you go.  I've very well travelled and consider it quite the hidden gem - very much a best kept secret.

I wouldn't go too far depending on how much time you have for Spring Break - I would not go to Maldives with a kid in the span of 8 days for example.

For what it's worth, I also don't think you realize that beaches come in different flavors.  My honeymoon was in Tahiti and I've also been to the world's most beautiful beaches like Grace Bay Turks, Sugar Beach St. Lucia and Flamenco in PR.  Also Normandy and Marseille sea side towns, but also unfamous ones in FL and CR - the point is - it's not like you've been to one beach and have seen them all.  The context matters and I assure you that not all beaches are created equal.  The environment where the beach is will give it a totally different feel.
