Need Spring Break.com receives almost 10,000 hits a week leading up to Spring Break in March.Most College students are seen as Dollar Signs to huge Spring Break companies who tend to over-promise and under-deliver on claims of having the biggest and best Spring Break.
The commercial impact of Spring Break is now being felt on beaches around the globe.
Costa Rica who has seen one of the biggest tourism booms in recent years is popular among surfers and students who visit the country for the beautiful beaches, abundant wildlife, picturesque sunrises and laid back atmospheres. Playa Del Jaco is the closest beach to the capital of San Jose where most major air carriers have several daily non stop flights.
Jaco is one of the worlds premier surfing destinations with several bars and clubs that beckon to young travelers throughout North America.
Students also visit Costa Rica because of the low cost of transportation food and lodging.
For Spring Break, Students often spend less than half of what they would have spent on an identical trip to Cancun.
NeedSpringBreak.com's President Wes Melcher says, "A student can spend 7 nights in Costa Rica all-inclusive with airfare for under $800 dollars. That's like a hundred dollars a day".
